I'm not sure what you mean.  While it is not the intent of the EFF,
tor is frequently used for all sorts of nefarious and perverted
purposes relating to child pornography.  The EFF takes measures to
block spam, which is less of a problem than child abuse, so it should
also take measures to block child pornography.

     Surely you jest!  It is not a function of the tor project to
periodically
search and evaluate the entire worldwide web to maintain a data base of
sites
that do not meet your requirements.  If there are sites for which you wish
to
deny exit service, then you are welcome to put them into your ExitPolicy
statements in your torrc file yourself.  That's why the ExitPolicy statement
exists, i.e., so that you can establish your own exit policy.
