As important as this issue is, maybe the government should also fix the entire reporting process so it actually worked correctly https://ny1.com/nyc/all-boroughs/ap-top-news/2024/04/22/report-urges-fixes-to-online-child-exploitation-cybertipline-before-ai-makes-it-worse

The CyberTipline reporting form doesn't have a dedicated field for submitting chat-related material, such as sextortion messaging. The FBI recently warned of a “huge increase” in sextortion cases targeting children — including financial sextortion, where someone threatens to release compromising images unless the victim pays.
