    Hurting youth is the whole point

    (I read somewhere about 80% of cases of child pornography is minors being the ‘offender’.)

    I need a source for this. Please tell me this isn’t the % of prosecutions because I’ma fucking scream

      Yeah, I wouldn’t go as far as saying that is the point. But they’re clearly throwing them under the bus, instrumentalizing the topic and accepting the damage. Still, I think the point is general surveillance and control. Probably mixed with lobbyism by stakeholders that benefit from that kind of legislation.

      I need a source for this.

      I can’t find the exact article. And seems I got the numbers a bit wrong, I’m going to edit my previous article:

      The german police talks about 42% of the suspects of their solved investigations being under the age of 18 (google translate) I don’t exactly know what “aufgeklärte Fälle” means in this context. It translates to “solved cases” so probably not necessarily convicted but not just an suspicion either.

      This interview talks about 54% of the suspects being minors. (google translate)

      If you want to read more, Patrick Breyer is a member of the EU parliament and covers privacy topics.

      And here is a good german article about sexting and stuff amongst minors and how we don’t have good numbers. Here they discuss some implications. This article contains an (english) open letter by scientists and researchers.

      Sorry for posting so many german language articles. My perspective is kind of german. Maybe you can use the new translation feature of Firefox 117+. Or the translation feature of the browser you use. I’ve included google translate links for some of the articles.

      I’d like if we craked down on things like this: (“In Spain, dozens of girls are reporting AI-generated nude photos of them being circulated at school”) if we want to target offenders who are minors. And as far as I know that service that enables them is still online.
