CHILD PORNOGRAPHY IN BITCOIN

[jpnl0005]

I believe that all these are just a means to drag the reputation of bitcoin into the mud,Bitcoin has multiple users and its been used for different activities come to think of it guns are made to protect people citizens of a country but same gun people use them to steal and also kill innocent people likewise drugs now this days the rate of drug abuse is very alarming also people now use bitcoin to promote their own acts .In essence people should stop seeing bitcoin as a source of evil doings.Please it does not help bitcoin is here for good they should accept and enjoy its benefits thanks.

I know that it is an underlying truth that child pornographers have some stake in bitcoin. They are using the platform of digital currency to carry their sick agendas. I hope policies are introduced to eradicate such people from Bitcoin.

It is illegal if you use for illegal but if you do for a good thing is not big ussue for that but this kind of news it affect for bitcoins also but the best part of it is many people use it for a good way like helping thier family and buy a lot of stuff.

It's hard to end. Just as drugs are hard to end. I agree with most of the comments that bitcoin is not just the means. It could be anything from paper money (fiats) to physical assets (gold, real estate). What they need is to enforce the laws hard enough.

Improve and improve the law. Just as how Google kept on hacking their own software securities for vulnerabilities.

I think this is not a big deal, I feel it will not affect anything. Pornography is common, then if it is related to bitcoin, then does bitcoin become bad? It's definitely NO. If anyone thinks yes, it does. It's very sad.

Child pornography in any form should be banned, including to those individuals that use bitcoin as a tool to promote this. It has absolutely nothing to do with Bitcoin.

[kotulo]

You can think about this, The problem is that these nasty habits and crimes existed for thousands of years in the minds and actions of the sick people long before Bitcoin was invented.

[PeRo]

And fiat currencies aren't used for those purposes? How did those people pay that stuff before Bitcoin? It is hillarious how they try to ban Bitcoin for illegal activities even when fiat is used the same. It is because Bitcoin is new so they think it is linked to the criminals using it, but we all know it isn't true..

Bitcoin is someway involved in these sins and pornography.The company itself is not sinful but others feel guilty of them because their are some contents on blockchain transactions messages that contain bad links that overcome downloading links to child porn unwittingly.

[railyako]

this is very alarming if it is really true. we just can;'t do anything about people like this especially with bitcoin. ugly side of being anonymous

[12tribes]

Well this is most reprehensible and totally unfortunate. This is why it is good to have some monitoring system. To however put the blame on bitcoin is entirely unfair and misdirected. You don't say because some shot someone with a gun that we should arrest the manufacturer or the vehicle that transported the arm to the shopkeeper or that the shopkeeper himself should be arrested. The people who did this are to blame and not bitcoin. This will not in anyway diminish the acceptance of the bitcoin

[airdrophunter]

Bitcoin being used in illicit activities is no longer new and i do believe that all countries are already aware about the capabilities of bitcoin in relation to crime. But for the countries that knows the significance of bitcoin in their economic growth is bigger than that of being used in crime will never prohibit bitcoin at all, IMO.

[AliMan]

just cut the crap out of it why don't you guys just use the system as it is designed to. People will always find a means to an end. It has absolutely nothing to do with Bitcoin.

This definitely will bring bitcoin trouble so as much as we can let's prevent it from happening. We should not allow this kind of idea into bitcoin. The system must be kept clean to attract more investors. We don't want this to happen because all of us will surely be affected. Let's fight for the safety and security of bitcoin.

[Stromspirit]

This kind of pornographic arrangement is already involved in the hidden ones currently using bitcoin payments, And I really think that there are ICOs that use pornography as a service source in there cryptocurrency, cryptocurrency is already tainted with things like this, that's why this is not new if this kind of problem is involved in the system.

[itssawai]

Illegal things and activities happens almost everywhere and with all the currencies including crypto and fiat. We should curb down those negative elements instead of banning or restricting a system. All the transactions done by these bad actors are stored onto blockchain, and it can be tracked down by their wallet used in those transactions.

[Lamisa asfiya]

This is a ridiculous and stupid statement. Governments don't see it and many country ban it that way because they see banning bitcoin won't stop the illegal activity. I think porngraphy and bitcoin are not regulated to each other. Bitcoin is valuable coin. Man use it there all activities in a day.

[Kapyong]

Wow,
so many ignorant un-informed posts !

Here are the facts :

"A Quantitative Analysis of the Impact of
Arbitrary Blockchain Content on Bitcoin"

https://fc18.ifca.ai/preproceedings/6.pdf

It's about porn being stored ON THE BLOCKCHAIN.

It's NOT just about people using BTC for porn.

Why doesn't anyone READ the DAMN article ?!

this is bad idea of pornography because bitcoin just a digital currency whatever you do is to pay and we cant do anything else and we can not blame in bitcoin but somehow people will get bored people will do is to watch a ponography we will not blame those people who watch a pornography if you want to watch just watch. people also sell their kid by naked their body this is bad i want to stop that pornography.

[jchav010101]

I don't think that there is any fault of bitcoin in such situation, because if it will become totally banned then they will change their payment method but are not going to stop the evil activities.I think that government should try to catch the people who are involve in such activities either they are using bitcoin or any other fiat currency.The goverment must find a solution to decrease that demand by not blaming the way to get into it.

[FourByfour]

Well bitcoin is used in many illegal activities ,but bitcoin is not to blame but the people who keeps doing so.
