BBC NEWS | Scotland | Blogging ‘a paedophile’s dream’
Oh for heaven’s sake. The BBC seem to have crawled down beside the Daily Mail in the gutter. The article linked below, written by an “expert” so misinformed she has the word “Cyberspace” in her department name, is yet another example of the press and government making deliberate attempts to frighten people.
Every time something new and innovative comes along, it’s the same thing – “oh no, you can’t use cotton wool, it may make you sneeze your own insides out – ye gods! you can’t go about sitting on grass! You may sit on a syringe!”.
So, blogging is a paedophile magnet, then. I guess the best thing is if we all just stay inside in front of our TV sets like good little consumers, never speaking to our neighbours in case they turn out to be axe murderers, never answering the phone in case it’s a weirdo on the other end, and always reporting suspicious foreign looking people in case they might be terrorists.
Go for it, Auntie Beeb – help to keep us scared – help to keep us bombarding ourselves with advertising and too afraid to protest the fact that our society is going to hell in a hand cart.
