Telegram said it had removed more than 274,000 groups and channels related to child sexual abuse material in 2026.

Why is no one in jail for this then??

    Maybe once he's impeached or his term is over, however, he'll have so much influence still I doubt any adverse outcomes will come to him, unfortunately...

    Trump only has influence because he is president without that is just this whiny goblin that cannot keep his mouth shut and knows too much. Epstein had influence and knew too much, and look how that turned out.

    That whiny goblin has an army of followers that he has been able to manipulate as a political tool to scare Republicans in Congress into voting the way he wants them too. He has also been able to whip them into a violent mob that tried to overthrow the American government.

    I have no explanation for it, but Trump's power is not limited to being President.

    I'm sure the CIA have a heart attack gun or something, he'll be taken out if and when, assuming he doesn't decline to the point of which is no longer a threat.

    There is no way he'll be allowed to just walk away. The 1% don't have total control of him and they can't have that.

    I mean, every few months it seems we hear about some major online international crackdown that scooped up a bunch of these fuckers. The sad fact is probably just that there are more of them than there are investigators/special agents

    It's really interesting. The old web was the wild west, and back then you really had to know where to look for shady stuff (except the morons who put it on the open web and were sacked by the respective authorities). Nowadays this shit is commercialized and running ads on social media - as if protecting children does not actually have anything to do with privacy violations, age verification, ALPRs or preventing teens from using social media, but rather actual police work that doesn't create a population that is naked to the eye of the state.

    Everyone who goes for backdooring encryption and ID verification just wants to automate the punishment of dissidents who want something different than the ruling class.

    Yeah, I quite "love" this BS.

    On one hand, these tech megacorps are pushing for privacy violating measures to "protect the children"

    On the other hand they're literally profiting off child abuse and refuse to stop it. See e.g. Roblox refusing to deal with paedos because they were the highest paying customers...

    zuckerburg and his shitty company explicitly allow this shit because it makes them money, and only ever remove it, feigning ignorance, once their actions are condemned by a government. profiting off of child sex abuse.

    zuckerburg profited off child sexual abuse.

    The longer I stay sober, witnessing events like this, the less willing I am to subdue my ever-strengthening desire to burn shit down

    Ask? what bullshit is that.

    No one should ask them.

    Everyone involved, from the developers to the management and CEO should get arrest warrants, and the servers confiscated. and then be on trial for distribution CP.

    maybe in the future companies would take it seriously.

    "But they were doing their job" bullshit.

    If Facebook cannot exist without CP then Facebook shouldn't exist.

    I gave up reporting human trafficking/kidnap schemes (this sort of thing) operating in public Facebook groups after the fifth or so "we checked it and think it's fine" message, because at that stage I started to suspect that I'd been flagged by their systems as an unreliable reporter and none of my reports were actually getting looked at anyway.

    It's not just you

    The BBC reported an advert to Instagram showing a very young girl in tears, with wording indicating that she had been sexually assaulted.

    But 24 hours later, Instagram replied saying it hadn't removed the advert because "our review team found that the advertiser's ad does not go against our community standards".

    India is likely not governed by Epstein's friends

    Only the paid ads?

    It is bad enough they have to be ordered to remove that stuff. The BBC had informed them some time ago about this, but meta saw it not breaking any guidelines...

    Platforms should be far more proactive about catching this before publication.
