AT least 2360 people in 77 countries, including Britain, are suspected of trying to download videos of young children being sexually abused and even raped, according to authorities who intercepted the illicit material on a web server in Austria.
The FBI was investigating about 600 of the suspects in the United States, Interior Minister Guenther Platter said, and German authorities were following leads on another 400 people.

Let's just hope it's run a little better than the similar Operation Ore where many of the accused basically had their credit card details stolen and used on such websites. Some of these committed suicide as a result of "naming and shaming".

Let's hope too that as well as taking the easy targets of the credit card holders, the sundry police forces will put as much effort into catching the producers of the videos.
