Globe blocks 3,000 child porn sites

The amount of AI-generated child abuse images found on the internet is increasing at a “chilling” rate, according to a national watchdog. Creating explicit pictures of children is illegal, even if they are generated using AI, and Internet Watch Foundation analysts work with police forces child porn and tech providers to trace images they find online. New job role identified as ‘pivotal’ in Cambridgeshire charity’s mission to tackle child sexual abuse material online among growing threats such as AI generated imagery. At the NSPCC, we talk about child sexual abuse materials to ensure that we don’t minimise the impact of a very serious crime and accurately describe abuse materials for what they are. The National Center for Missing & Exploited Children’s CyberTipline last year received about 4,700 reports of content involving AI technology — a small fraction of the more than 36 million total reports of suspected child sexual exploitation. By October of this year, the group was fielding about 450 reports per month of AI-involved content, said Yiota Souras, the group’s chief legal officer.
We sampled 202 images and videos; 130 images were of a single child and 72 contained multiple children. Rates of child sexual abuse have declined substantially since the mid-1990s, a time period that corresponds to the spread of CP online. The fact that this trend is revealed in multiple sources tends to undermine arguments that it is because of reduced reporting or changes in investigatory or statistical procedures. To date, there has not been a spike in the rate of child sexual abuse that corresponds with the apparent expansion of online CP. In November 2019, live streaming of child sex abuse came to national attention after AUSTRAC took legal action against Westpac Bank over 23 million alleged breaches of anti-money laundering and counter-terrorism laws. The institute said it matched the transactions using AUSTRAC (Australian Transaction Reports and Analysis Centre) records that linked the accounts in Australia to people arrested for child sexual exploitation in the Philippines.

The boys had used an artificial intelligence tool to superimpose real photos of girls’ faces onto sexually explicit images. We know that seeing images and videos of child sexual abuse online is upsetting. It is perhaps surprising that there is not a higher ratio of multiple child images in the ‘self-generated’ 3-6 age group. It would be easy to assume that a child of that age would only engage in this type of activity on camera with the encouragement in person of an older child, leading the way, but shockingly this is not what we have seen. It also goes to show how successful the abusers are at manipulating very young children into sexual behaviour that the child is unlikely to have previously been aware of. It also demonstrates the dangers of allowing a young child unsupervised access to an internet enabled device with a camera.

Google publicly promised last year to crack down on online child pornography. Adults looking at this abusive content need to be reminded that it is illegal, that the images they’re looking at are documentation of a crime being committed, and there is a real survivor being harmed from these images. ‘Self-generated’ material is something that has risen year on year and a trend we are constantly monitoring. We are now seeing much younger children appearing in this type of abuse imagery. For this reason, we took a closer look to provide an insight into what’s going on. The site, named Welcome to Video, was run from South Korea and had nearly eight terabytes of content involving child abuse – enough to store hundreds or even thousands of hours of video footage.
Dear Questioning Adult,
- We are now seeing much younger children appearing in this type of abuse imagery.
- The NGO said that last year Brazil totaled 111,929 reports of storage, dissemination, and production of images of child sexual abuse and exploitation forwarded to Safernet, a significant increase from 2021’s 101,833 cases.
- A young person may be asked to send photos or videos of themselves to a ‘friend’ that they might have met online.
- Child sexual abuse material covers a wide berth of images and videos that may or may not show a child being abused – take, for example, nude images of youth that they took of themselves.
The notes included one girl who told counsellors she had accessed the site when she was just 13. British subscription site OnlyFans is failing to prevent underage users from selling and appearing in explicit videos, a BBC investigation has found. AAP is known to have joined a WhatsApp conversation group with 400 account members. Telegram allows users to report criminal content, channels, groups or messages. This can be done by emailing with the subject “Report user @name.” Users must include details on the reason for the complaint and wait for a reply.
The number of child victims is up 2.3 times from a decade ago, while the number of cases detected by police increased by 1.8 times. Officials did not provide an estimate for the number of victims affected but said the abusive material shared on the site exclusively depicted girls. He warned that many children unknowingly expose themselves to danger simply by sharing explicit pictures either with a partner or friend. They feel violated but struggle to share their experience because they fear no one will believe them. These perpetrators use psychological manipulation to weaken their victims, gradually pulling them from one stage to the next.
Up to 3,096 internet domains with child sexual abuse materials were blocked in 2024 amid Globe’s #MakeItSafePH campaign. Young people, including children and teenagers, may look for pictures or videos of their peers doing sexual things because they are curious, or want to know more about sex. Many youth who look for this content do not realize that it is illegal for them to look at it, even if they are a minor themselves. Where multiple children were seen in the images and videos, we saw that Category C images accounted for nearly half.
