There was murder, rape, child abuse, fraud, and a hell of a lot more during the hundreds of years of human civilisation before the Internet came into being.

You need to stop the people to stop the crime, not target the tools they use. Governments and law enforcement seem to pour a lot of effort into 'closing down the Internet' to prevent crime, while there are corporations making profits exporting weapons to third world countries. I accept that the Internet is used by some individuals to commit crime, but it has a million other uses that help humanity. What else does a gun do?
