There's a potential good use for fake images.
Virtual, or well photoshopped, images could be used to lure dealers into distribution, so that a known trace can be followed, hopefully helping to bust them.
- squarefoot 6y agoWhile I've learned to not give a shit about being downvoted, since it happens more and more often out of personal taste than objective thinking, still It just amazes me how some users hit the button without even thinking why they are doing it. Creating fake illegal things has been done in the past with the purpose of analyzing their path through the so called black markets in order to discover where they travel to go from point A to point B. So, why doing the same with fake child porn images should sound so weird? I mean, they're fake, it's not like someone is being harmed in the name of justice, but simply the authorities could pose as creators and attempt to get in contact with the distributors and bust them.

- squarefoot 6y agoSadly, it's being also produced on request, as "new material" to them has more resell value.
