  Exactermuckerly so! In fact, you are not safe, even if you are one of the "Right People" ( And, in this case "right" has two meanings, just for fun) as the arrest of Patrick Rock shows Now this guy is an aide to No 10, & he was publicly known to be working on the problem of child abuse imagery on the web.
