      It’s called a honeypot. They even ran CP servers in the past (after taking them over from the actual admins, in order to unmask the users).

              What does this have to do with libertarianism?

              I’m a libertarian, and I think honeypots are a fantastic idea! It makes enforcement of the law compatible with individual privacy, since the only data the agency would get is from people who willingly offer it. I may disagree with you on the definition of CSAM (e.g. pictures of actual kids vs AI-gen and human drawn images), but I absolutely think honeypots are the right way for police to enforce the law.

              You’ll have to open your eyes, how can you even believe this overused malarkey. This is just a blunt political assassination instrument. We invented it to kill the church, and it was funny. Fuck the church. But you’ve lost the plot if you think 1% of 1% of these supposed kids even exist. It’s largely a fabrication to eliminate inconvenient persons and send them to the slave pits. It’s a well oiled, if overused kompromat machine to keep the elites in check.

              Can we please just nuke Russia ASAP so I can get the MAD ending I was promised to this circus while growing up.

        Agent 1: We just nabbed a gang of child abusers!

        Agent 2: We found out your MAGA uncle is a really bad “investor”.

        I feel like Agent 1 is far more worthwhile.

          They’re both worthwhile. Agent 2 is more like “We found out your uncle was pumping a security by making fraudulent claims in order to dump it later and screw them all over.”
