Why would a pedophile pay for pictures of clothed kids
when there are so many hard-core child porn sites out there?

In all the years I've been on the internet I've never stumbled across even one child porn web site.
I was under the impression that most child porn was insiders sending it via e-mail,
or maybe member only sites with passwords and such.

Am I wrong?

Are there any FReepers out there that have seen one of these "many hard-core child porn sites," themselves,
rather than "hearing about it from a trusted friend, group, news source, etc"?

In the early days, they were easy to find. A friend of mine and I used to see who could find the grossest thing on the Internet. I found a site full of autopsy pictures. During the search, he found a child porn site. The links led to other sites. Some of it was pictures of kids playing in parks that the members had taken.

In the old days, USENET had EVERYTHING. Probably still does.

A lot of the problem isn't you knowing how to find a kiddie porn web site....it's knowing that the pedophiles know where to find your children online.

Hey parents...keep your kids out of internet chatrooms. Pay attention to their online travels.
