Sounds like the FBI is coming for you Trump supporters, where will you hide now?
Luke Lee
>Trump supporters are the degenerates :^)
Brody Green
This is why you dont allow javascript, or look at cp.
Evan Brown
Nowhere is safe now to hide your loli stash
Samuel Watson
I dont condone the behaviour but Tor is still safe and still has those sites up and running. The weakest link in security is the user. People get caught because of stupidity and ignorance.
Ryan Brooks
how is this shit legal?
they're wasting their resources processing wankers, while real crime is at an historical peak.
Wyatt Morales
Kid-fiddling user, they're not using all their resources to catch a few hundred people who jerk off.
Jose James
It's not just about wankers being wankers. You realize that these are REAL children being wanked to, right? More demand for CP equals more children being a part of this sick shit.
Logan Garcia
There are many attack vectors which do not require javascript
Jordan Turner
they're not real they're just photos and stuff
Adam Jones
This. They should use their resources With Her
John White
terrorists aren't real they're just in photos and stuff
Andrew Scott
that is true. I have never seen any terrorist or islamist. Have you?
Michael Martin
So the FBI was one of the largest disributors of cp? Good fucking job FBI
Cameron Taylor
b-but they're the good guys!
Ryder Collins
nah, 99.999999% cp is harmless softcore.
they could just prosecute the small percentage of real abusers, and let alone the rest, but that would be probably too much work.
Jackson Wood
>However, nearly 1,000 IP addresses were revealed that's all? for 23 sites?
Juan Perry
>nah, 99.999999% cp is harmless softcore. How do you know that?
Adrian Wood
so Entrapment, it wouldn't have been there if they just took it down.
Gabriel Cooper
REMINDER: If you want to enjoy CP and more with minimal consequence, you need to join, or be close to the political elite, or be super rich.

Anthony Reed
>Comet Ping Pong Did they actually crack that site?
I remember reading something about encrypted zips, but I never really followed up on it or gave a shit.
Samuel Martinez
Not entrapment. It would be entrapment if they encouraged you to visit those sites. The sites were already there, they just took them over and didn't take them down.
David Anderson
The law doesn't allow the FBI to distribute child pornography. Will agents of the FBI be arrested?
William Hall
They were given approval to do this.
Mason Thompson
*sigh*
Believe it or not but behind these "photos" there is real abuse of infants. And the abuse exists because there is demand. Wankers are not just wankers, they're creating demand for it, and as such are a big part of the problem.
You could argue that we maybe should not give much emphasis to catch the consumers but rather to catch the ones who are actually producing this shit, but it's much harder to catch the masterminds behind it because they're way more careful than the average wanker and, guess what, Tor works.
Aaron Sanchez
>Tor works Except it really didn't for at least 200 who were charged and 1000 whose information was at least collected according to that article.
Brody James
>They were given approval to do this. That's nice, but the laws don't grant an exemption for police work. It's still illegal. The police can't for example murder someone as part of a gang initiation to place a under cover officer. They can't operate a CP web site to collect ID.
Samuel Sanchez
The police can sell drugs and guns given judge approval. It's happened in the past. It's only entrapment if they seek out you, not if you seek out them.
John Powell
I guarantee that, of the agents that were on this sting operation, at least one of them was a pedo and used this as an excuse to collect pics for his own sick purposes. What an absolute nigger.
Ryan Martinez
CPP is still alive and well, which was the point of my post. If one has enough money/ political influence, you can literally get away with murder, and in some cases, even the police and government agencies are complicit. Hide your kids.
Mason Fisher
And why do you think so many other didnt get caught? Perhaps they know more about security?
Jackson Jones

Sebastian Bell
>The police can sell drugs and guns given judge approval. It's happened in the past. It's only entrapment if they seek out you, not if you seek out them.
I never said a word about entrapment. I said it's illegal to distribute CP. It's illegal for me, it's illegal for the government.
All laws apply to everyone equally. That's why you must craft a law to include exemptions if you wish to act counter to it.
For example a bog standard law might read something like; Any person that does X is guilty of this crime unless in accordance to section A, B, C, D.
Then you list ABCD and say for use by the DoD in their lawful duty, or by exemption granted by X body.
At the Federal level the US law has no such exemption. That's because it's not only illegal to produce CP it's also illegal to distribute it.
Each off the Agents should be facing distribution charges and conspiracy charges, and all the way up the chain to anyone that approved it.
Lincoln Robinson

Jacob Adams
I'm guessing that's all they got from their 'malware' Only idiots fall for that shit, enabling javascript, running flash and other stupid shit.
I would be more worried about exploits in stuff like rar/zip and movie files. There were a few of those recently.
Jacob Nelson
>It's all fun and games until the FBI finds an unpatched security hole There are always new vulnerabilities being discovered. The point is, curently Tor is secure. The proof would be the dozen or more cp sites that are still running with a huge community.
Lincoln Diaz
>mac address those are pretty easy to spoof tho
Brody Roberts
I have all of it and counted user
Brody Mitchell
The FBI basically controls online CP. I wouldn't doubt whatever degenerate sites you're talking about are FBI ran while they slowly collect metadata
Caleb Perry
One could easily avoid such exploits by extracting offline in a secure environment.
Evan Clark
Controlling them for over a year? Oh ok
Ayden Adams
Wouldn't put it past them.
Dominic Martinez

Im talking about new sites that have popped up after playpen went down. Those sites have been operating for a long time now and are still up.

If I'm on the list I'll be playing Darude Sandstorm on my head killing each an every of them shitheaded fucks. If I die you have permission to pee on my corpse whenever you feel like.

William Rodriguez
sick fuck
Jason Turner
so honey buckets are legal?
nice man, god bless the USA
Xavier Walker
By that logic, yes. But I think the whole point is to arrest potential criminals, although that's idiotic. You didn't do anything wrong just by watching or imagining something (no matter if it's cp or terrorism videos), and yet they'll accuse you just because they're expected to arrest people. Otherwise it'd seem like they're being paid to do nothing. They're running out of real criminals to arrest so they have to make up laws and grasp straws.
Isaac Long
How do you view videos of you don't allow javascript?
Justin Russell
You enable fbi.js to watch, but don't worry you're safe.
Carson Parker
Pretty sure there aren't streaming sites, numb nuts. cocaine.ninja and a few other pomf sites got fucked by pedos uploading password protected archives

>real crime is at an historical peak. What did he mean by this?
Julian Bell
But that's not why they popped Freedom Hosting, user.
See all the way back at :
For those who didn't know, Tormail was set up on Freedom Hosting to provide pseudonymous email.
Edward Snowden's email address used when he was trying to teach Glenn Greenwald how to encrypt - vimeo.com/56881481 (note date) - was [email protected] - why, hello NSA selectors.
The NSA Tailored Access Operations group, as part of assisting the FBI investigation into what became the Snowden leaks, hacked Freedom Hosting (probably by SQL injection or something mundane), and discovered its location, in order to find out who that leaker had been talking to or anything else. They didn't end up learning anything useful from that, so the FBI next went onto the other email address Snowden had used - [email protected] - which was domestic, so the NSA weren't strictly speaking allowed to hack it, so the FBI went legal on them, and we all know what happened to Lavabit right after that.
Meanwhile, while poking around, the NSA goons found the other sites hosted on the Freedom Hosting servers they'd rooted, and not to put to fine a point on it, some of them were infamous cheese pizza sites. They promptly put what they call a NIT on it - an attempted IP address leaker - which added itself to every site Freedom Hosting hosted (including Tormail), hoping to score the leaker's IP address, or failing that something about the cheese pizza - it would have made for a very nice cover.
Long story short they hit paydirt, Freedom Hosting's owner was arrested, it's all down now.

Luis Baker
>kid fucker has camera and loli >no buyers >guess I better just start fucking adults It doesn't fucking work like that. In the digital era, CP producers make porn because they fucking can and want to, and sell it on the side. Once it's sold it's usually either traded on text chats or just distributed to the horny wanking masses. Going after some faggot with an internet connection and an itch on his dick doesn't save a single kid you fucking retard
>hurr we can't catch predators so lets just go after low hanging fruit so the masses don't realize we're incompetent and useless
>*sigh* You must be 18 or older to use this site
Landon Morgan
The people running Tor must have turned on JavaScript or even flash or something.
Carson Green
Why would a site get fucked for hosting password protected archives. They can't be expected to know what's in an encrypted archive. They should only be responsible for removing offending content when brought to their attention
James Hill
They got shut down for a while because people were investigating. Tons of pedos were using pomf sites to upload CP on whatever forums. A lot of pomf hosters were kind of pissed about it. Some lowered the filesize and disabled archives.. >why would a site get fucked for hosting cp? ... I get what you are saying though.
Cooper Phillips
Pretty sure JavaScript is enabled by default on Tor
Aiden White
>hosting CP unaware of that fact, and it's unreasonable to demand they screen the files on their locker
Kayden Ortiz
it meant that he is lying, cherry-picking, or "history" is only 10 years for him.
Asher Green
that's why it isn't a common method. only dum dum diddlers will open a rar while connected to the internet. i don't even do that, and the only thing i have to hide is that i like traps.
Ayden Gomez
Pretty sure using FOSS software to open files is more than enough >his archive extractor allows arbitrary code execution

Which one is it fags? It can't be both.
Thomas Gonzalez
You just rely on other people to tell you what you want to hear, just like with any other software. Don't act like you can audit it yourself
Asher Brown
checking files for hash matches is trivial. the assumption that screening files is computationally expensive sounds like something a non-tech person would say — like assuming that it's impossible to go through a few hundred thousand emails in a week or so.

>Don't act like you can audit it yourself I can, but I don't because I don't have time to audit the software I run, just like everyone else on the planet, which is why using FOSS is pretty good. People who develop for the software can check the code and any vulnerabilities are in the open for people to see. Can't hide obvious shit

Juan Roberts
probably because the idiots thought installing the Tor browser on Windows 10 would make them safe
Tor is still a good security tool. Don't spread FUD because Tor is more secure when more connections are made with it.
Blake Thompson
