I feel like this story sort of confirms my view that cops and pedos are, how to put this, “Tom and Jerry”: 1.8 million KidFlix users to 79 arrests at present, means that a pedo could directly participate in the sexual exploitation of children, and end up literally having a 99.996% chance of getting off scot-free — even if all 1,400 suspects do get arrested eventually, then that’s still a 99.92% chance that a given pedo who created a KidFlix account, won’t face any punishment for their actions. God is more likely to take the matter into His own hands by way of a freak accident, than cops are to even knock on a pedo’s door with a warrant.
In that sense, one could say that there’s a commonality between stealing someone’s childhood and stealing someone’s wages, in that the bourgeois state has to pretend to be opposed to both these criminalities, and might accordingly dispatch its police to “make an example of” a handful of the crime’s offenders — but in reality the crimes are As Good As Legal™, because they still ultimately serve the same system as the cops do. So it’s all a cartoon! It’s pure spectacle! You’d have to be a damned fool to think Tom’s ever gonna catch and eat Jerry once and for all!
Even apart from dedicated CSAM sites, it’s mind-blowing how many adult men creep on minors on regular ass corporate social media, openly and publicly, with their full names and faces right fuckin there alongside their creepy messages. And it seems like the worst that ever happens to them is an account ban, maybe, if mods actually give half a shit.
I swear I heard (but I don’t know where I might source this claim) that most CSAM on the Internet is distributed through regular ass corporate social media, in e.g. private groups named after obscure euphemisms.
How can they not get more than 1400 suspects? Don’t they have payment information, IP addresses, and more PII on some of these people? Surely 99.9% of pedos don’t have flawless opsec
The reality is that even if we go full idealistic true believers that think that the system works as it’s described and intended (assuming the US justice system), the whole justice system really doesn’t have the resources to go after every single person, and would rather go after those that they can be sure the charges would actually stick.
It’s kinda the same way with where if every single person accused of any crime refused to take a plea deal, and went to trial, the entire system would be bogged down to the point of being non-functional.
Don’t they have payment information, IP addresses
Payment info could easily be stolen cards. As for IP addresses, those can easily get semi regularly rotated around, and I highly doubt ISPs are in the business of keeping a history of who had what IP at certain dates.
Hopefully this is just the tip of the spear, and there are plans for a long-term operation to match account names to perpetrators using the info they now have access to.

it’s 1400 after they’ve removed all the porkies and politicians from the list
