        Yea planting cp on people's computers is the fed equivalent of cops sprinkling crack on dead bodies

        All the arrests and charges for that were after he was caught leaking data

          Makes me wonder if they actually store CP in all the source code or final executable auto downloads it when ran. Would be a very reliable way to have a very easy way to sway public and media in the event they feel their case is weak. That way it makes it very very hard to have the person(s) become a hero. Given the way that the NSA and CIA basically can't be controlled anymore by any branch of the government. Wouldn't shock me for them to maybe already have shit planted on everyone they see as maybe being an issue or a threat to their powers.

          Unlimited access to the CSAM hoard is one of the perks of joining up

            https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Childs_Play_(website)

            Childs Play was a child pornography website on the darknet that operated from April 2016 to September 2017, which at its peak was the largest of its class.

            After running the site for the first six months, owner Benjamin Faulkner of North Bay, Ontario, Canada, was captured by the United States Department of Homeland Security.

            For the remaining eleven months the website was owned and operated by the Australian Queensland Police Service's Task Force Argos, as part of Operation Artemis.

        Well yes. But at the same time the CIA has been engaged with CSAM among themselves and acquitted by the courts because going to trial would reveal “state secrets”

      Sounds like this was just a personal revenge thing against the CIA for hiring an outside contractor instead of him. If you ping the soul detector at the front door they don't let you in the building in the first place.

        Lmao. Literally one of the main reasons why you don’t hire mercenaries is because your regular troops will become jaded and kill you. NatSec is such a fucking grift industry that mfs forget how to cover their asses
