Man Found Guilty of Child Porn, Because He Ran a Tor Exit Node::undefined
Every person and business that has any wifi or server on the internet “might help pedophiles hurting children”. Amazon S3? Could hypothetically be used in CP (actually almost definitely is used for CP by somebody).
Your email address? Could be used by somebody malicious for CP. Which means if you think it’s that important to stop pedophiles hurting children, you should shut it down.
And in fact, Lemmy is decentralized and can absolutely be used (let’s be honest, somebody probably already is somewhere) to distribute CP. We should be openly opposing Lemmy now, right?
…boiling down to the real problem. There are so many uses for Tor that have nothing to do with CP and so few Tor users that deal in CP. Privacy is a valuable thing and we should not be murdering privacy for all people in hope it might stop 1 or 2% of child predators.
