No, I thought "Cheese Pizza" ist just an acronym for inappropriate pictures and videos of children. Tell me if I'm mistaken (English is not my first language).

Maybe you weren't around long enough to appreciate the war on terror during which the George W. Bush administration and the very right wing Congress and SCOTUS all had fantasies about locking down the internet and making sure no one could think terror thoughts without the DHS knowing.

And while we're at it, kill that porn bugbear, for the children, of course.

Then they realized qucikly enough that the only thing netizens love more than porn is cat pics (seriously. We measured.) and all we'd do by criminalizing unregulated internet traffic is make criminals of everyone in the US.

And who would be right there to teach everyone about net privacy and how to keep all your transactions hidden? Terrorists. Child porn enthusiasts. Communists. Also the whole black market where you can buy children and bomb parts. Also thr encryption / privacy community that occupies every LUG across the world.
