Well, the EFF's take on the resolution is always going to be more about the censorship it introduces than how much it enables law enforcement to curb actual crime.

I'm aligned with the EFF on this, and would vote against this if it were raised in any democratic forum I voted in, but that's because I care more about reducing censorship than reducing online crime. Yes, I, unlike most voters in modern liberal democracies, would let ten paedos walk free to save one Aaron Swartz.

If you really care about them ~equally - as you have to, for your comment to be made in good faith - then you can't take your talking points from the EFF.

Think of the children has been a trope for a very very long time because it takes a real backbone to stand up against it and to risk being labeled a pedo yourself because other than lawyers (who have to) and other pedos, who would defend a pedo?

Fun fact, there is a large overlap between pedos, those who argue against teaching kids from early age on about their bodies and sexuality, and those who consistently see pedos everywhere they look at.
