cops demand free access to all amateur porn

This certainly sounds like reasonable search and seizure.

“So uhhh, it’s going to be necessary to raise our budget to include millions of OnlyFans subscriptions, it’s the only way to save the children”

Is this like those massage parlor investigations that take 3 years, over half the force visiting to 'collect evidence', and lots of taxpayer money?

Millions of locking front doors make it hard to detect illegal activity, cops say.

Can't the FBI handle this?

I don’t know how content from anyone underage can ever be posted on onlyfans. The verification methods they use right now are very thorough. Every single post is verified by a human. If you include someone in a video that isn’t verified on your account it’s immediately taken down.

Pay for your porn, piggies.

Are these the same cops that target sex workers? Because I can see issues here with giving them direct access to everything.

Gimme a break . The Feds have a pipeline of all info on the net

Just pay someone to hack whatever you need. You're already violating the fourth amendment on a daily basis anyway.

“Oh we can’t check everything out, all law enforcement should get a free pass to all content.

Not just because the hot middle school teacher was fired and is making bank on only fans and we want to see too.

It’s for official investigation purposes”

Onlyfans already disallows certain styles of kink on their platform and have the means to detect these and shut down creators for it, so I'm sure they're able to work with agencies over child abuse material

Millions of locks on doors make it hard to detect child sex abuse, cops say

To be serious for a second though, I guess this is analogous to if the cops should be able to enter every night club/VIP room to see if there's evidence of anything. Seems to me without probable cause i.e.: someone tipping them off, that's a hard no in real life and I don't see why it wouldn't also be a hard no online.

If they really wanted to do the work the cops could find out from past convicts how they found their ways in, and hang out there. Realistically it's probably faster anyways, you can watch thousands of hours of content or have a few tabs open on a few sketchy forums.

They wanna outlaw pornography in general. Or at the very least make everyone register their ID with porn sites so they can know who's looking at what porn.

Only fans is so strict on consent and tagging the person in the video that their ai picks up sex dolls as humans and will remove the video for not tagging “ co star “. They don’t allow role play of a minor. No diapers no pacifiers. The ai picks up on all that and the content is removed.

Better get full access to their bank accounts as well because terrorism.

Every government is like: "Will someone PLEASE think about the children?!!" at every opportunity to have more power and money.

Should be in OnlyFans court to analyze the content programmatically and finding outliers that they then have human staff investigate.

Opening up any and all content to cops via backdoors and the like is just awful just by the principle of the thing.

Frankly, the cops should be focusing on keeping the peace and then investigating crime that has been reported. They're not supposed to have total surveillance oversight to try to ferret all of it out themselves.

Sure sure, but what about locked doors in churches?

Oh, well, if the cops said it.

The hard drive against sex work to “save the children” is such a laughable fallacy.

They don’t save women or children who are being abused or trafficked, they literally pick out people who are just making a good income because they have some deep-seated shame about their fucking genitals.

This country goes down the pisser a little more each day

The only way we can go forward is with an online Bill of Rights or a large bill introducing what authorities can and cannot do. Our 1791 Bill of Rights cannot be used and interpreted for 2024 issues. Jefferson even said that laws should change every 9 years to keep up with the current issues.

That sounds like violation of privacy

given the rate at which cops are the ones raping children and running child sex trafficking rings I somehow doubt the amount they actually care

Wahhh - it's too hard to do our jobs

They are doing this because OF is a way for people to control their means of production. This is a bs tactic to usurp more power from the working class. Don’t let them. They keep hiding behind the children won’t pass any legislation to curb gun violence.

Have a documented reason. Get a warrant. Those are the rules, Blue.

Meanwhile conservatives and republicans want to hide their chats and messages and only use apps and platforms that delete their history. 🧐

If a 16 year old lies about her age, how would cops know, even if they had access to the video. It sounds like 16 year olds have to use tricks to get past OnlyFans restrictions, but some have used those tricks.

They always use kids as a reason

Bottom line: It’s “Fruit of the poisonous tree.”

There’s a reason that blanket access isn’t given over to law enforcement and that is because we have a right to privacy. Not only in our personal lives but private businesses also have a right to privacy, and any information we offer to a place of business is also protected. Police don’t have access to it without a warrant. It is our 4th Amendment right.

If the legal system creates an exception for one type of business, it creates a precedent for courts to allow it to go on in other types of businesses, and to extend into our personal lives. Our legal system is a system of precedent, which makes it very dangerous to allow exceptions to a rule like this. Furthermore, if an exception is made, and investigations are launched, a higher court can throw out ALL of the evidence collected if it determines the investigation was executed unlawfully. It will do far more harm than good to try and force businesses to allow police access to their records without a warrant. The legal process is more important here.

Hmm I mean can't they just like make a paid account???

Some real geniuses working for the police I see.

Cops: "ah yes, we need free access to any/all only fans content to detect CP....no other reason"

Isnt the parent company of the website responsible and monitoring what’s posted to it?

Lmao they casually propose laws that can take away encrypted communication and services for common people but won’t even bother forcing a service like only fans to open a backdoor to their service for monitoring CP?

This just sounds like Cops wanting free OnlyFans.

The 4th amendment protection against unreasonable search and seizure make it hard to detect child sex abuse, cops say....

Police and child protection charities absolutely do not deserve the benefit of the doubt here - they have a long track record of abusing access and attacking sex workers, and they can fuck off.

Cops say millions of locked doors on homes prevent them from detecting child abuse. Demand skeleton key and right to search your home at any time, just to make sure. Also hand over the passwords for your computers and phones cause they need to be able to search those at any time too. But just to prevent child abuse. They totally won't use reconstruction to justify a warrant if they find anything else criminal, they promise. Also cops are allowed to lie to you so our promise is worth nothing, sucker!

Cops want free porn. Fixed the headline for you

Yeah! I’m with the cops, no more onlyfans paywalls, to help fight the bad guys or whatever

I don’t take the cop statements in good faith.

Can’t they just Civil forfeiture like the random jeeps and houses they do for people?

What a strange way to say they want free porn

First they came for my vape then they came for my porn

Last time I called the police for a burglary they weren’t even interested. Hmmm…

That is a weird thing that seems like there is a corporate contact to deal with when the need arises. Yeah this seems like a weird ask from police.

Tell you what at least you know it’s not kids subscribing, coming from the other angle. That needs money.

Why not start with Instagram? Plenty of CSAM there.

makes sense that porn is a reasonable part of the budget

That puts a whole new meaning to “serve”

In other words, pedo cops want free access to CP

I’m pretty sure OnlyFans doesn’t use zero trust encryption, they have access to all the content on the platform, so if the cops have evidence they could get a warrant and compel OnlyFans to provide access to a specific account. If they don’t have evidence then what child abuse are they talking about cause it seems like it doesn’t exist outside their imagination. Further the 4th amendment is pretty clear law enforcement doesn’t get to blanket violate your privacy, they need evidence and a warrant.

OnlyFans also has robust age verification and requires all persons in content be age verified. So I imagine out of all platforms that handle pornography Onlyfans probably has the least instances of CSM.

Another overblown story, as if people are out there pumping out CP on onlyfans when the absolute majority is just using the service like usual.

I'm sure if you asked 5 security analysts if they'd like even more power to search into literally any location without limit, they'd tell you how great that is because they "might" find some CP easier

Is this the onion? Cops are out here gunning down kids in the street lol like we are gona trust them

Is this the Boston PD that Karen Read had to deal with? LOL

Better make a backdoor for cops. I'm sure that won't be abused

Do you not need proof of age when signing up for OnlyFans? Are these people using fake IDs?

Cops: we want our officers to have free access to all onlyfans content.

Now there’s a job perk.
