It would almost seem easier to simply monitor who it is that downloads CP themselves and then blackmail them into doing your deeds for you. I do not doubt that CP is downloaded and inserted unwillingly into a sought-after target to control, though.

None left. They've all committed suicide or boarded a faulty aircraft.

Someone made a valid point that busting a person for CP in a govt job is a great way of controlling them, or terminating them without drama. Could be a Standard Operating Procedure in some areas where they need or want to threaten people into silence.

Or could be wishful thinking that there aren't that many degenerate immoral scum out there who are so addicted to that shit that they look at it at work.

HANDRAHAN: Executive branch porn problem - Washington Times

This has been an automated message.

This is an excellent piece and gives a very good point of entry for new research. Specifically, this

I suggested readers type “Transportation Security Administration,” “U.S. State Department,” “Pentagon,” “Immigration and Customs Enforcement” and “child porn” into Google’s search field to understand the scope. I neglected to include “Missile Defense Agency.”

It's crazy this wasn't a bigger scandal. It just goes to show how much the media directs, or has directed in the past, what we do or don't get outraged about. Didn't anyone stop to ask why so many of them were looking at CHILD porn? I seriously doubt many people, if you sampled the general population, regularly look at CP. Maybe some people have looked at it once out of some sick curiosity. But for it to be a significant problem in an organisation really indicates that something very wrong is afoot.

I'd be interested in knowing how people are recruited for these jobs, and by whom.Do government departments use headhunters? Or do they just put out job ads and respond to applications? Or do they simply decide amongst themselves who's going to be filling the upcoming position of Director of Cybersecurity Operations as they're passing a severed head around the circle at their Saturday evening 'book club'?

Stories like this are really interesting because it shows the sheer amount of random people looking at CP. If you read each services' Good Order and Discipline report (at least that is what the Navy and Coast Guard call it), you will see, without fail, nearly every quarter multiple people (average low level guys, nothing high up usually) are getting busted with CP, often on a gov computer. I will never understand it. Everyone knows to what degree a government/military computer is monitored, so this has always seemed insane to me.

And that gov't officials looking at porn left national security systems open to foreign hackers, including Russians. Lol!
