EDIT: From a Google search I found these other sites quoting it and more.

http://www.independent.ie/irish-news/courts/fbi-bids-to-extradite-largest-childporn-dealer-on-planet-29469402.html

US authorities are seeking the extradition of a 28-year-old Irishman described in the High Court by an FBI special agent as "the largest facilitator of child porn on the planet."

TOR has gained immense popularity in the wake of the NSA leaks. Gravitycollapse Aug 2013 #3
If I go into TOR will I end up with malware and viruses? Then again those sites are from TOR. Maraya1969 Aug 2013 #4
TOR is simply a browser that reroutes searches through a network of computers. Gravitycollapse Aug 2013 #5
Tor is also used by a lot of governments Warpy Aug 2013 #12
You think it's unlike that purveyors of child porn would want to use TOR? pnwmom Aug 2013 #6
Are you attempting to equate all pornography with kiddy porn? Gravitycollapse Aug 2013 #7
Nope. I am not. I'm saying it's a subset that would be ESPECIALLY interested in anonymity. pnwmom Aug 2013 #8
I think everyone who searches porn wants anonymity. Gravitycollapse Aug 2013 #9
