Of course they want 'm banned...
It makes the lives of the enforcement a whole lot easier: now they wouldn't have to take the effort to actually look into what these people are doing, they can simply down the hammer whenever they spot signs of "social media".
Maybe I'm an old cynic but still... I have no love lost for people who abuse children. If it were up to me they'd spend half their lives in jail for that. But I also think that when they served their time you should also give them a fair chance to redeem themselves and sort it all out. And suggestions like these don't do that. As said: I think it only benefits law enforcement more than anyone else.
And the reason for my skepticism? Simple: this is what the government, in general, is very good at: trying to do less work for its citizens while still demanding the same amount of taxes for it. You see this happening in most countries throughout the Western world.
