"Trap" as in entrapment makes using this to arrest or expose people wrong.
Also, and this is debatable, talking with a chat "robot" in no way constitutes the crime of pedophilia.
- TallGuyShort 13y agoThis. I don't recall the source or many details, but there was a guy who had chatted with a law enforcement official posing underage in a chat room, but he never showed up for their "date". They sent the SWAT team and news media to his house and he shot himself. They made the point that lots of people suspend belief to live a fantasy in a chatroom, knowing the other party is likely not who they say they are. Was this any different? Certainly a moral gray area, but not worth the guy's life for some sensationalism.
