I wonder what's their excuse this time - the children or the terrorists.

-- it's the children.

"That would be an unspeakable atrocity", yet there is contradiction in the final sentence. The issue is, what evidence is there to prove such thing operation actually works, as my last point implied - what stops the government from abusing this sort of operation. With "covert" operations like this the outcome can be catastrophic for everyone.

This particular platform used tor. It doesn't mean all platforms are using privacy centric anonymous networks. There are incidents with people using kik, Snapchat, Facebook and other clear net services to perform criminal actions such as drugs or cp.

With the amount of sites that are easily accessed on the dark net though the hidden wiki and other sites. This might of been a honeypot from the start.

On the contrary, why would they announce that they seized the site? To cause more panic, and to exaggerate the actual situation?

In addition, that last point should be considered because even if they used these type of operations, honeypotting would still be considered illegal. So Ultimately what is stopping the supreme power to abuse that power on other people?

That's why I find reddit so strange. Age gaps is apparently the most demonic thing you can do. No matter if you're 19 dating a 17 or 34 dating a 27 you're a huge red flag either way.

There is an excessive usage of the word 'hunting'. What all those people are doing is admitting that they consider people as animals, or an "acceptable" way of harassment. And just like people who where in the kkk they don't care who that person is, but that they're the most vulnerable minority.
