Well, this brings up the elephant in the room that anti-porner "protect the children" types either ignore or deliberately confuse.
There is a major difference between 1.) an 8-year-old searching Yahoo for "Barbie" or "Cinderella" that get hit with a faceful of cumshot images, and 2.) a 16-year-old boy who is actively searching for porn images.
The first group should have legitimate protections in place, such as parental filters, non-explicit warning pages, etc. The latter group - well, that's the immutable law of supply and demand, and the idea that someone needs protection from something that they are already knowledgeable enough to be actively seeking out is laughable.
Of course the anti-porners bring up the first example when what they really want to do is stop their horny teenagers from finding jerkoff material. I agree we have a responsibility to do what we can to discourage the teens, if for no other reason then the fact that they are non-paying bandwidth wasters. But we all know a "warning page" isn't gonna stop the teen boy horndogs.
