The reason they don't care about that is that the whole thing isn't about protecting children at all but about surveillance of the vast majority of people.

This. There are already plans on expanding what the surveillance is used for, as soon as it is possible to begin with.

"Think of the children" is just the trick they're using to get their foot in the door. It being utterly ineffective in doing what they claim it'll do, is irrelevant.
