And here on the BBC is the dubious CEOP report on the possible trafficking of potential children again, this time with an even more dubious survey by the campaign group Ecpat that finds that 10% of 1,255 people are unaware of the dubious CEOP report. Worse still: 'The survey also found that 22% admitted buying fake DVDs or visiting brothels, which can perpetuate child trafficking.' So can crossing the street without looking left and right or entering a room without knocking, >>> Of course; you never really know. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/8199867.stm Meanwhile the entry for Ecpat on Wikipedia is flagged for being written like an advertisement, which by my own loosely conjectural reporting style means you can't trust them as far as you can throw 'em. Alas, the only backing I can find for such scurrilous accusations is among the usual suspects, such as Libertus.net, which accuses Ecpat of 'statistics laundering.' http://libertus.net/censor/resources/statistics-laundering.html Surely not, and anyway they mean well.
