Why Filter CSAI out?

The Case for Filtering Child Sexual Abuse Imagery (CSAI)

Whilst agencies representing the rights of children have been around for many years we typically think of these organisations as helping children in the third world, war zones and in disaster relief. But there is now a bigger problem that affects children globally - regardless of location, colour, and standard of living. The Internet has become the central tool of communication world wide and as such has enabled exponential growth in a more sobering and illegal industry exploiting children. Not only is content on the Internet largely unrestricted and unmonitored so that children are now regularly viewing inappropriate adult material, children are increasingly being sexually exploited to fuel the growth in child sexual abuse imagery (CSAI) which is marketed and sold on the Internet.
