Maybe It's Time for a 'Child Porn Czar'
December 9, 2008
Writing critically about child pornography and Internet related issues makes any columnist twitchy. Words must be precise, ideas and intent clear, and even then such writing is more like tap dancing through a minefield than it is an editorial undertaking. As a result, the subject of child pornography and those chosen to police it are given little journalistic scrutiny.

Enter Christopher Soghoian, a columnist for CNet who writes the "Surveillance State" blog. Soghoian has stepped up to the plate and taken on what he calls an Internet "sacred cow," the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children (NCMEC).
