I'm admittedly pretty cynical about these things, but i think blocking adult content by default is mostly to help pedophiles and predators. The internet is a dangerous place for kids, why else would you want to make it look safer, while leaving the real dangers (people) in place?

Kids shouldn't have unsupervised access to the internet. This has become a controversial statement, mostly due to a false sense of security brought on through censorship.
