MoobY writes "The Belgian justice department has taken harsh action in a dispute over the legality of stopkinderporno.com, a site that reports the whereabouts of child abusers. Belgian visitors trying to visit the site are now redirected to a so-called stop page (in Dutch) stating that '[They] have been redirected to this stop page because the website [they] are trying to visit offers content that is considered illegal according to Belgian legislation.' The disputed regulation is being put into place to stop illegal child porn, phishing or gambling sites, but, ironically, this case of suppression is aimed at an anti child porn site."
