  I imagine it’s easier to catch uploaders than viewers.

  It’s also probably more impactful to go for the big “power producers” simultaneously and quickly before word gets out and people start locking things down.

    It also likely gives you the best $ spent/children protected rate, because you know the producers have children they are abusing which may or may not be the case for a viewer.

    Hopefully, they went after the pimps and financiers.

    Yeah, I don’t suspect they went after any viewers, only uploaders.

    79 arrested, but it seems they found the identity of a thousand or so.
