On this subject, I was just reading an article in the local paper about
internet-censorship. It seems there had been questions about this in Dutch
parliament the other day, mainly concerning whether or not the government
should take action against Dutch-owned web sites that offer pornographic
material or things to do with soft drugs. The Dutch government's point of
view on this matter is that it's the parents' responsibility to keep their
kids away from such things, and no intervention is necessary unless things
run out of hand.
