Fight against pedophilia has always been one of the common excuses (the other being terrorism) used to install spying devices everywhere, even despite very few actual organizations that fight the problem actually asking for such things.
I would be sad to hear that it would indeed be a useful tool, because the behavior of western government in the last 20 years at least makes it impossible to trust them on that one.

With enough propaganda, they would vote happily on anything, so this particular one is an easy one.
