And I think that when we go back talking about regulation, yes, age verification has been introduced in some countries, and that will stop six-year-olds perhaps coming across it once when they're on the iPad.

A lot of people aren't convinced that age verification is going to help solve the problem.
Going after these sites also, the way that they have been built, the way that they're created, is done in a way where the risk is spread.
So they've structured it deliberately to make it hard for law enforcement to go after them.
Let's use the case of Motherless.
