It's one thing overriding filters and blocks put on either by software on the computer or at the router level. It's quite another doing the same to filters and blocks placed on the network at the ISP level. It's still possible, and I dare say some kids will be able to do it. You might find some of the proxy and VPN sites also get blocked.

The thing is, when you and I were young, we had to make do with whatever we, or one of our mates got get hold of through the local newsagents. This stuff was relatively tame and we still had the problem of what to do if we were caught by the newsagent (even assuming we could reach the top shelf).
If we were lucky, we could swipe one or two of our dad's more hardcore magazines (assuming he had any) but we still had the risk of getting caught.
Now, kids have free (both as in unmonitored and as in cost) access to hardcore porn, some of which is illegal, and most of which is considerably harder than the stuff you or I had access to.
You can argue all you want, but the fact remains that no one can predict the effect allowing kids free access to all that porn is going to have on society, and I think it will have a massive effect on society, and one I don't necessarily think will be good.
