EU Wants States to Block Child Porn Websites

The EU Commission wants member states to agree to block access to child pornography websites and impose tougher punishments on child abusers and human trafficking gangs, it said. The Commission, the EU's executive, is proposing a package of measures to strengthen the bloc's fight against child pornography, including harmonizing the prosecution of child abuse and human trafficking, and more severe punishments for both first-time and repeat offenders.
