I typed in schoolgirl abuse and in 0.16 seconds Google delivered me 6,860,000 results; page after page of young girls being violated, some in English, many from other countries.

As for such porn fuelling abuse, research also records the effects on users. An individual who sexually abuses children regularly seeks out child pornography as part of their sexual gratification. Many paedophiles view child porn immediately before attacking a child.

Yet the fact is that internet service providers and Google still utterly refuse to do anything about it. How ironic that Googles corporate motto is dont be evil. This week, the internet giant has made headlines, not for its refusal to block porn, but for tax avoidance.

(115,103 posts)Oh but I'm sure this isn't true about just regular old non-pedophilia-themed 'abuse porn' and the abuse of women.
I'll bet Google relies on the pornographers who claim they have proof the 'porn stars' and 'models' are of age, and only look young, and they cooperate with law enforcement.
The fact is 'schoolgirl porn' is a fetish that adults have created, by having women both voluptuous and childlike dress up as kids - so unmuddying those waters will be difficult at best.

(13,598 posts)I'm sure that people who are turned on by abusing children will seek out images of others doing so.
That doesn't constitute evidence that people who would not otherwise have abused children will do so because of pornography.
