Germany and other Eu countries are doing the same. These lists allegedly contain sites with child porn so listing the sites is the same as distributing child porn. Of course since the list is secret, if the government was to slip a few other sites on the list - you wouldn't know except for wikileaks.

Yeah, a lot of sites got slipped in. There are gambling sites, porn sites other than child porn sites, fringe religious websites (like a satanist website and some Christian websites), youtube links, and even a dentist's website.

And there are plans to expand the list.
