"Sexual abuse and sexual exploitation of children are particularly serious forms of crime and can cause long-term physical, psychological and social harm. It is clear that it is right to take an approach which seeks to address the root causes of the problem with a view to eliminating this crime, the nature of which is changing rapidly, especially with the ongoing progress of technology and its application. In the past, child pornography was limited to physical applications such as the post or photographs. Now, the images can be sent around the world using the Internet, quickly and without cost. The criminal nature of these acts requires strong and robust action. We had a lengthy debate on the issue of blocking and deleting website content.
We need to strike a careful balance between freedom of expression and protecting children. It is incumbent upon the Member States to work with Internet service providers to ensure that children are protected from illegal activity by a system of checks. Member States must firstly delete websites containing or disseminating child pornography or, if this cannot be achieved, block access to these web pages."@en1
