It's a big deal because child abuse is rampant in our country, and in most other places, it's even worse.
I can't recall the source (I'll try to find it tomorrow), but allegedly the amount of child pornography on the darknet is equivalent to a quarter of the legal pornography on the internet. That's a shocking amount of children being abused.
Law enforcement makes such an effort to go after people who view child pornography because many of them are members of underground communities. In any such network, someone is providing the material, as in, someone is raping children and posting it to the darknet. It might sound stupid, but their mentality is often similar to that of serial killers. They want evidence of their crimes to keep as "trophies", and they want recognition from their peers for their "achievements." If you find some random sick fuck who downloads that kind of thing, chances are that he would rather dime out his buddies than feel the full force of the DOJ come crashing down on him. This is how you find the actual abusers.
I for one think that the DOJ needs to stop fucking worrying about how many people downloaded an episode of GOT without paying for it and start using all of those wasted resources to find more pedophiles.
