European police say KidFlix, "one of the largest pedophile platforms in the world," busted in joint operation.

I used to work in netsec and unfortunately government still sucks at hiring security experts everywhere.

That being said hiring here is extremely hard - you need to find someone with below market salary expectation working on such ugly subject. Very few people can do that. I do believe money fixes this though. Just pay people more and I'm sure every European citizen wouldn't mind 0.1% tax increase for a more effective investigation force.

It would feel odd, but you have to remember we live in a world where Epstein was allowed to get away with what he did until the little people found out.

Then end up USA

[maeve@midwest.social]

1,393 suspects identified
79 suspects arrested
Over 3,000 electronic devices seized
39 children protected

And yet there are cases like Kim Dotcom, Snowden, Manning, Assange...

"See we caught these guys without doing it, thank of how many more we can catch if we do! Like all the terrorists America has caught with violating their privacy. ...Maybe some day they will."

not stumbled upon it but I've met a couple people offering it on mostly normal discord servers

I'd be surprised if many "producers" are caught. From what I have heard, most uploads on those sites are reuploads because it's magnitudes easier.

Of the 1400 people caught, I'd say maybe 10 were site administors and the rest passive "consumers" who didn't use Tor. I wouldn't put my hopes up too much that anyone who was caught ever committed child abuse themselves.

I mean, 1400 identified out of 1.8 million really isn't a whole lot to begin with.

I regularly see people on Lemmy advocating for pedophilia, at LEAST every 3 months as a popular, upvoted stance. I argue with them in my history

[lustyargonianmana@lemmy.world]

No, there really are a lot of pedophiles on Lemmy

[lustyargonianmana@lemmy.world]

Search "AI woman porn miniskirt," and tell me you don't see questionable results in the first 2 pages, of women who at least appear possibly younger than 18.

Fuck, the head guy of Reddit, u/spez, was the main mod of r/jailbait before he changed the design of reddit so he could hide mod names. Also, look into the u/MaxwellHill / Ghilisaine Maxwell conspiracy on Reddit.

USA ain't got shit on the Eastern Bloc when it comes to sex trafficking.

[pyre@lemmy.world]

what he fuck I've never ran into anyone like that.don't even wanna know where you do this regularly

[Guest]

They're only concerned with the room fees.

Don't see, don't tell.

Sadly.

[Guest]

idk im at like 7 months an the only time i was able to ctrl f "pedo" in your history was when you were talking about trump (which, fair) and then again about 4chan pedophiles (which, again).

[Guest]

Hopefully, they went after the pimps and financiers.

[Guest]

Gratefully, I've not experienced this.

And I don't want to know where they are.

[Guest]

There are a lot of pedophiles everywhere.

Unfortunately, the really rich ones get away with it for a long time, and few get away with it forever.

[Guest]

Bribes, most likely. Until the wrong people (the Right People) became aware of it.

Kidflix sounds like a feature on Nickelodeon. The world is disgusting.
