It seems like a stretch to say that the existence of those images causes harm;
Not a stretch at all; I'd recommend you so some reading into the stories of the many, many people whose lives have been permanently upended (or worse - there have been many suicides) after finding leaked images of their abuse (or simply revenge-dumped images of consensual relations) posted in easily searchable websites.
As to the rest of what you're saying -- "There are too many, computers, we'll never really be able to completely stop this" -- look, it's a matter of degree and ease of access. Just because we can't bring the effective visibility of these archives down to zero -- doesn't mean we can't reduce it very substantially, down 90 percent or more from the current level.

Once the pictures/videos have been taken the harm has already occurred and the victims will live out their lives knowing that "somewhere" "someone" is consuming those images -- even if they never see evidence of it. The harm is caused by the possibility of such sharing.
