It’s more ridiculous to believe that fighting crime is confiscating cars, block websites or similar things without catching the ones who cause the crimes.

You shouldn’t ban websites. You should get the criminals.
I honestly know what you mean. But I have my principles. It’s not good to use censorship to fight disinformation. It’s a social problem and it’s better to fight the root cause, not the symptoms.
Every time some entity introduces censorship-like measures, the internet gets slightly worse. And I mean it from a technological perspective.
I don’t like to lose good things, just because there are some morons out there.
If you can navigate masses towards X, you can also do it in the opposite direction.
I’m against banning things. It’s better to teach users how not to use these platforms.
It’s more effective, because it has a long term effect.
I like the Danish idea to label EU products in supermarkets. Information is a good first step.
I’m the one saying “find the criminals”. That’s the priority.
Please note, I am not saying that you shouldn’t delete illegal material or confiscate drugs or whatever.
I am saying you shouldn’t block pages, because the material is still there and the pedo, too. You have done essentially nothing, except harming the internet infrastructure.
