Is there not some way to involve the authorities? I feel like FBI/CIA or other foreign agencies would love to track down whoever is distributing. Like set up some sort of honeypot instance to catch them

They probably connect using tor. Not much you can do with that information (without effort far exceeding the value of one CP spammer).

Doesn't the NSA run half of all Tor exit nodes?

ssssh.. if they start arresting CP posters then people would lose faith in the Tor network and stop doing their illegal activities there.

[-] smollittlefrog 2 points 1 year ago

Yeah. Even if they don't run lots of nodes, they most likely do have some method of deanonymizing tor users. But they're not gonna use it for one troll disrupting some small community.

Well the NSA did develop TOR so it wouldn't be surprising if they did. It's not like the NAS doesn't break their own laws

Shit, what was I thinking of? Could just be some BS I've heard too. Thanks for the correction
