Resorting to name calling and conspiracy alleging doesn't make you look any better. But it does make it easier to dismiss anything else you have to say. The amazing thing is, regardless of your concerns, this is going forward, it's going to help the cause of eradicating child exploitation, and there is nothing you can do about it.

You compare organized rings of pedophiles with jaywalkers. Check.

Your lack of compassion for sexually exploited children is noted.

It speaks volumes that you are lumping organized pedophile rings that very much exist and destroy the lives of thousands of children, with "think of the children" idiots who don't want sex scenes in PG films.

They aren't interested in some old random techie who may or may not have accessed a picture of child porn however many years ago, they are going after organized worldwide rings of pedophiles. Relax. You're not the target.

Just amazing you are more concerned for a nonexistent threat to yourself over the sexual exploitation of children.

RTFA, they are collecting official case information, not internet rumors. Don't worry about your nonexistent wife or girlfriend.

There are a lot of comments like yours in this story, basically stating the fear that innocents will be caught up in a dragnet. The cynic in me just concludes you are worried someone has a record of that child porn torrent you downloaded in 2008 and quickly deleted but did watch with interest beforehand. Don't worry, you aren't the target.

Try googling "pedophile ring". Organized pedophilia is hardly hypothetical. And, since being a pedophile is obviously independent of your economic or social class, there are going to be organized pedophile rings among the rich, famous, and powerful too. Those are going to be harder to bust simply because they are composed of powerful resourceful people who society hesitates to question in the first place.

It's true, it is no accident that everything Anonymous does now is in line with our foreign policy and law enforcement objectives. Maybe even more clever than that, because pedophilia is a touchy subject internationally with our allies, many of whom have no problem selling little girls to rich men and see people not in their class as totally expendable. By having this seeming independent group of "anarchists" take on those touchy issues, you have ample plausible deniability, and you get your objectives met with relatively little effort and exposure.

Really I think it's a good use of all those little script kiddie punks' time and effort. Do something useful instead of just undermining our own institutions.

Well now your $1,000,000 in bitcoin you bought is suddenly worth 12 cents, but no worry, you've got FDIC!

Who the hell okayed them naming all the various zones of the comet after Egyptian Gods? How needlessly confusing and stupid is that? Maybe I'm a fuddy duddy, but I think names like "Sonic the Hedgehog" (for a protein) is fucking stupid. Choose something neutral sounding and hierarchical and/or enumerating, if not descriptive, at the very least.

I think the idea behind this app is it takes care of getting the 1-time PIN to the UPS guy in a secure way beforehand and reliably, and sets it up with your garage door, wirelessly to the internet without you having to be involved. But yeah, hope you don't have anything interesting in your garage.

How was this professor supposed to know she was a victim of past rape? Did he? If he did, he's a piece of shit and should be fired. If he didn't, then it's reasonable for him to conclude she was a consenting adult, being 32, and sending him naked pictures of herself voluntarily. I think it pretty much hinges on that.

Niiiiiice...
