I should have know it comming.
My blog entry yesterday with trackbacks to Vint and Laetizia make them both very curious. So I have repost some of the entry in english. Bare with me for an new rant och how child porn is used in panic. This is basically the same as the "Vad får man säga?" entry. But i have changes some stuff that i think wasn't that relevant any more, or that i can write a little better to get my point out.
During the last week's swedish blog sites have been filled with comments about Pirate bay, and the Swedish police's child port block list. The police when out with that they where going to add Pirate Bay on the block list they distribute for most of the Swedish internet operators. That then DNS block the sites, so you can't find then in the DNS. This with them knowing there was no child port on pirate bay, that is just worked as a search engine (like google, that still holds child porn but the Swedish definition) or any of the meta search engines that index more that one tracker.
In addition to this Second Life have got child porn tacking mania after a german news tv stations payed one 27 years old and and 52 years old person to act out a sex scene where one is supposed to be a child. Linden Lab clames the the age limit in Second life is 18 years, even if no-one can believe they actually got any clue of the players age at the moment. How ever the have lead to that linden added some kind of filter to there events and classifieds. Or not a filter they just don't allow some combinations of letters, this making impossible to use the word loli in posts. This apparently as well are active when posting events on the linden lab site. Now some more more common words like teen have been added, as well. For apperently the world will be better if we can't say some words, for of course it will disappear when we can't see it any more.
Please Linden public you list, I would really like to know what I can't say. Also the swedish police should public there list of blocked domains. Secret block list will not help anyone. Personally i would like all that works with implementing there worthless lists to get home and spend some time with your your kids and family. I you all made hat it would probably make a real world difference. Out kids need grown up to look up to, to be there for them and it parents, family and friend are there that don't have to get that much out on the net in desperation to get some grown up contact. Now one probably don't dare to talk to anyone below 18 years of age, the only reason for a grown up to talk to a kid is to assault them.

I don't think LL will publish the list either, although someone (looks very kind at Laetizia, but if you do not, I will?
could start to keep a list of all words we know are banned/blocked.
As for the banning of words being useful, I agree with what Laetizia said earlier. The stuff will still be there. And people interested will still be able to find out. There are other ways to spread this kind of information (forums, notecards, landmarks, ...). It will only make it harder to keep track of who's doing what where. And in the mean time make legally and ethically correct (whatever that may be *grins*) events impossible to post.

Thanks for this effort, Anders. I do not believe they will publish a list: Daniel Linden said that such a list would mean an endorsement of everything which is not on the list...

No I don't think that will either, if people think this is interesting the list will come out. The Secret list that the Swedish police collects about child porn sites are on several places on the net. I think the approach is stupid, figuring out the list is trivial but would make an overload attack against the SL event server.
This is just a lame excuse not to track down the real crimes. I'm getting angry for that. Abusing kids i can't stand, but I still have to defend the open world that are supposed to grow up and be a part of. I can't just stand by and let all freedoms be removed to protect them. The parents must have some responsibility here. Making sure that the kids don't play SL can't be that hard.
Vint....

You are so right. Maybe we should convince some one to make a web-bot at try the English lexicon against the posting. But actually it would be more interesting to try an German, or Swedish one.
