I still would have been confused. Still am, actually. Did this
paragraph have a serious point at all? I hope so, because Wikipedia's
porn problem is a serious issue.
The point was, I think, that no "software" is perfect (not even
parents' brain) and that parents can't rely on software too much. Not
that hard to understand, hence please avoid off-topic (see subject)
paternalism.

This interpretation is right but a also a bit incomplete. It also
criticizes the "one hat suits everyone" approach. The reasons are:
a) Children have not the same age. What should a 8 year old see and what
a 16 year old? I doubt that there is a good compromise between both
ages, what i called black- and white-listing.
b) Also parents have different expectations depending on how they see
their child or themselves.
c) The proposed filter would have affected all projects and therefore
every culture the same way, ignoring cultural differences entirely.
This leaves the question: What is the prototype target group for the
filter? If I remember correctly, this was never defined.
