I think part of the problem, at least as I understand it, is the fact that the filters currently available are not sophisticated enough to tell the difference between porn and legitimate web content. For example if I wanted to search for information on gay and lesbian relationships, filters would block most sites because of those two keywords. Another example I saw cited was breast cancer. Some filters would block sites because of the word breast. These are both legitimate inquiries but because of the filters you would not be able to access the information.
