We Need A Sheriff

We all know it is quite difficult to do what they are asking but it certainly isn't impossible and not everyone is computer or internet savvy. Without just such controls the internet is doomed to be far less useful than it might otherwise be. I see a "can't do" attitude on some of these comments and an awful smell of "I'm alright Jack". If that means the net breaks into several parts for a few years that is fine, the stronger parts will survive and the other parts will collapse precisely because they didn't address these problems. Surely if troublesome sites are picked up they can be spammed out of existence even if they are in a troublesome jurisdiction like China or Pakistan.
