    During the investigation, Europol’s analysts from the European Cybercrime Centre (EC3) provided intensive operational support to national authorities by analysing thousands of videos.

      You do get sick, and I would be most surprised if they didnt allow people to look away and take breaks/get support as needed.

      Most emergency line operators and similar kinds of inspectors get them, so it would be odd if they did not.

        Yes, my wife used to work in the ER, she still tells the same stories over and over again 15 years later, because the memories of the horrible shit she saw doesn’t go away

        Indeed, but in my country the psychological support is even mandatory. Furthermore, I know there have been pilots with using ML to go through the videos. When the system detects explicit material, an officer has to confirm it. But it prevents them going through it all day every day for each video. I think Microsoft has also been working on a database with hashes that LEO provides to automatically detect materials that have already been identified. All in all, a gruesome job, but fortunately technique is alleviating the harshest activities bit by bit.

    On average, around 3.5 new videos were uploaded to the platform every hour, many of which were previously unknown to law enforcement.

    Absolutely sick and vile. I hope they honey potted the site and that the arrests keep coming.

      I once saw a list of defederated lemmy instances. In most cases, and I mean like 95% of them, the reason of thedefederation was pretty much in the instance name. CP everywhere. Humanity is a freaking mistake.

            There are a lot of pedophiles everywhere.

        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

              I feel like what he’s trying to say it shouldn’t be the end of the world if a kid sees a sex scene in a movie, like it should be ok for them to know it exists. But the way he phrases it is questionable at best.

              When I was a kid I was forced to leave the room when any intimate scenes were in a movie and I honestly do feel like it fucked with my perception of sex a bit. Like it’s this taboo thing that should be hidden away and never discussed.

              I’m sorry but classifying that as advocating for pedophilia is crazy. all they said is they don’t know about studies regarding it so they said “probably” instead of making a definitive statement. you took that word and ran with it; your response is extremely over the top and hostile to someone who didn’t advocate for what you’re saying they advocate for.

              It’s none of my business what you do with your time here but if I were you I’d be more cool headed about this because this is giving qanon.

                They literally investigated specific time frames of their voyeurism kink in medieval times extensively, wrote several paragraphs in favor of having children watch adults have sex, but couldn’t be bothered to do the most basic of research that sex abuse is harmful to children.

                  “they knew some things and didn’t know some things” isn’t worth getting so worked up over. they knew the mere concept of sex being taboo negatively affected them and didn’t want to make definitive statements about things they didn’t research. believe it or not lemmy comments are not dissertations and most people just talk and don’t bother researching every tangential topic just to make a point they want to make.

    Every now and again I am reminded of my sentiment that the introduction of “media” onto the Internet is a net harm. Maybe 256 dithered color photos like you’d see in Encarta 95 and that’s the maximum extent of what should be allowed. There’s just so much abuse from this kind of shit… despicable.

      It is easy to very feel disillusioned with the world, but it is important to remember that there are still good people all around willing to fight the good fight. And it is also important to remember that technology is not inherently bad, it is a neutral object, but people could use it for either good or bad purposes.
