Political positions

Internet blocking

In 2009, Krogmann explicitly supported the controversial initiative by Family Minister Ursula von der Leyen to block Internet sites to combat child pornography (cf. Law on Combating Child Pornography in Communication Networks ). From their point of view, the easily bypassed bans make access more difficult, especially for “random users” of child pornography. Krogmann had previously negotiated a corresponding working draft of the law with Martin Dörmann (SPD).

In the course of the discussion about blocking websites in North Rhine-Westphalia (2001) , Martina Krogmann criticized the “populist approach” of wanting to fight content on the Internet by blocking websites . She warned that more and more "unsuspecting people jump on the advance of an individual". This would be “absurd and harmful”, would feed off “a media term from the 1970s” and “cause considerable damage to the Internet and the network economy”.

Kazakhstan

In the first half of 2009, Krogmann repeatedly mistakenly used Kazakhstan in various media as an example of a country that has no form of outlawing child pornography. For example, she claimed on June 16, 2009 in the radio show this morning on radioeins of the RBB:

"We are concerned with the pornographic content in countries where child pornography is not outlawed and is not consistently punished and is therefore not deleted. [...] because we have no access to things that are on a server in Kazakhstan, for example. "

Child pornography has been banned in Kazakhstan since July 4, 2001 at the latest. The monitoring of online activities is generally handled very restrictively there.
