Knowledge is an inherently frightening thing, as is the prospect of other people feeling they have a right to know things in general. Remember that (a) the right to know things in general does not come for free - it's a hard-won privilege - and that (b) when someone wants to suppress others' knowledge of things like inconvenient history[1], porn has historically been a handy stalking horse.[2] But of course, anyone who says this is obviously just a troll and troublemaker. - d.
