Oh, for the love of God, no!

My position:

1.) Filters don't work; ask any teenager.

2.) I loathe filters of any kind, purely on principle; once you start
filtering for one thing, filtering for others becomes an easier jump.

3.) If filtering is done on anything other than port numbers (which have
no connection to content, per se), I think it could open up node
operators to legal liability.

4.) I'm very, very leery about the whole buzz about child porn and
pedophiles in general; like terrorism, I worry about it become a carte
blanche to destroy civil liberties.
