      That’s kind of the risk with any technology. And I admit, it is the most likely way we lose control: someone will ask, “why does Apple let you turn off the child porn filter?” and the answers may not be enough for lawmakers or an angry mob.

      That the same could be said of a great many tools that filter bad content, from spam filtering to DDOS filtering. Should a technology not be available to consumers based on a hypothetical? That’s just as bad.

      If a technology exists to filter content I don’t want to see, who are you to tell me Apple shouldn’t sell me a device with that technology I want?
