Restricting it even further to child sexual abuse content on the web? The end results will be even worse when leaked. I doubt the IWF would want ACMA touching their list, as it would be like leaking it themselves.

It was predicted earlier this year at a seminar (I have notes somewhere) and was regarded as worse than legislating, in terms of free speech.
