The largest collections of child pornography are in the hands of the FBI and other agencies. All major Western distribution centers are theirs.
This serves 3 purposes:
>selling
Yes, they profit from committing a crime "in the name of the law".
>fish for specific targets
Certain relevant individuals are lured into a fully monitored honeypot, then use it as blackmail.
>demonstrate service
It is important to appear that they are heroes and are working, this increases the trust they receive from society, pleases their superiors and is easier than going after armed criminals. Since this work is universally considered beautiful and moral, it is excellent.
And they don't even have that many criminals to go after. The state is completely aligned with international drug trafficking, human trafficking, money laundering and the whole shebang. They only fight those who oppose the already established factions, which generate money for the elites. Because of this, they end up with lots of time in their hands, so it is perfect to fill this void by catching retarded coomers on the internet. You can dress up in full combat gear, go with a squad of 12 heavily armed people, and break into a house in the middle of the night to arrest a fat guy with big tits who can get beaten up by a Chihuahua. It's an opportunity to look good on TV and brag to your colleagues.
Are you a pedophile and want to watch cp with impunity? Join one of these ((( NGOs ))), become a police officer/investigator who works in this area, or know how to make the right friends. In all of these cases, you have carte blanche to access everything, since you are "fighting" to "protect" children. Last case scenario, you are friends with the king, so if things go bad your way, all the media conglomerates around the world will simultaneously and immediately work to clear your name.
