I would estimate that it would be pretty much impossible for the average internet user to find child pornography or videos of murder/rape etc. But I find it is hard to estimate if the reason for that is targeted government action, or it is because sharing those kinds of material goes against the natural moral instinct of most normal people.
- DanBC 13y agoOnly this year Facebook refused to remove videos of a woman being killed by having her head cut off. (http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-22368287 http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-22368287) They've since changed[1] their mind about this, but finding videos of real people being really killed is trivially easy for anyone. This isn't in some specialised guro community or a shock image on 4chan, these were distributed on a social network with a billion users. [1] Weird that they had to change their mind because these clips seem pretty clearly to violate their rules already.
