That generally is what happens. But plenty of distribution can be going on in the meantime. And frankly, the Internet is global, and few other countries make it as much of a law enforcement priority as the U.S. does.

You cannot block anything from being shared on the internet unless you are willing to accept a NAS style gathering program to do it, otherwise you're playing the world's largest game of Whack-A-Mole.

For example, you can take a file and encrypt it. Upload to file sharing site, the site owner has no clue what is in that file, nor would law enforcement. They will go into a chat room or whatever and find people to share the key with. This is where they get caught if they didn't hide their tracks.

For more sophisticate crowd there is multiple ways to hide your tracks with some of them being outside of the reach of US law enforcement.

There is no cure for sexual attraction to children.

You could have a torrent of images from one "provider" that can quickly get into the hands of thousands of people. Even if you arrest the originator, the material is already out there and stored locally on peoples' systems. You can't destroy that.

I am a little ignorant, but how in the hell is this stuff available "to download" in the first place! I am a little surprised that these sources, where ever they may be, are not shut down and banned in the first place. Is this not illegal to create and dispense? If made outside of the US, how can this still not be blocked?

Excuse the ignorance, but how the hell does this type of trafficking ever happen in the first place!?

Beats Me I haven't seen any Child Porn...and never will....so please don't anybody tell me how to go
about doing that.......PLEASE......

How can someone not support GPS devices for child molesters?

The lock and throw away the key is not going to happen and was more tongue in cheek but I'm 100% serious about GPS devices for all child molesters.

Im in favor of the two brick method of castration.....Then put an ankle GPS and make them sign up as sex offender for life

That's if they get out of jail after being locked up in jail with Big Buba! (Even criminals have their standards, and child molesters and sex offenders are on the top of their "let's play hide the salami list")

There are lots of things people do in society that we consider sick.. but we dont lock them up in a mental ward..

Jail.. Yes, mental ward.. no..
These scum bags cant function in society. Do you wan your child, sister,brother,etc subjected to their perversion?

They will not reform. They have a sickness that can't be cured.

Why our legal system allows these disgusting people loose after a few years in jail is beyond me.
Because of liberal do-gooders

You did a good thing---but a really dumb thing, If they had a knife or gun you wouldn't be posting here
