It’s fascinating you don’t believe that authorities are frustrated by people sharing CP without repercussions.
In this specific case, there’s a legitimate argument to be made for protecting kids even if you don’t think it’s worth the increased surveillance.
I’m kidding by the way about it being fascinating. It’s actually really stupid and doesn’t surprise me that people like you would believe nonsense.
Wow. You actually believe them when they tell you they want to protect children. That’s fascinating.
Ignored.
Heaven forbid you talk to anyone outside your echo chamber lol
