Child porn on file-sharing networks

In another reminder that kids wanting to swap tunes can encounter other types of files on file-sharing networks, CNN reported that "dozens of people" (of all ages) were arrested this week for trafficking in child porn on P2P services. "One 19-year-old youth recently arrested and convicted told authorities he started using peer-to-peer applications to share music, but later moved on to sending and receiving images and movies of child pornography." That's a federal crime on which the FBI and Immigration and Customs Enforcement are cracking down, having formed interagency task forces at federal, state, and local levels for this very active law-enforcement effort.
