Can we trust any Australian organisation talking about children abuse? I suppose only Afghanistan has more restrictive censorship. I think Australia will find some abuse even in a brick to have an excuse to forbid access to information.

I think this will soon be required by the Trump administration, so they’re just getting ahead of the curve.
