FBI: has broken servers in Denmark, Chile and Greece

Details of the full extent of the FBI's hacking of child pornography sites hosted on the Dark Web have been revealed by Motherboard. The web reports that the Federal agency used unusual means to collect evidence to prosecute users of the sites.fbi

In order to do this, the service has undertaken hosting the site on its servers for 13 whole days.

During the period the site was functioning normally. In short the FBI was accepting child sexual abuse images for distribution (which is against any legal ), για να μπορέσει να συγκεντρώσει διευθύνσεις IP και να μοιράσει malware που μεταδίδουν πληροφορίες σχετικά με τους of the site.

The goal of course was to arrest the members of the site, and as it seems the purpose continues to sanctify the media…

The result of this ς; Η συγκομιδή διευθύνσεων IP και άλλων πληροφοριών από περισσότερους από 1.300 που είτε συνδέθηκαν είτε καταχώρησαν κάτι στην ιστο during this period.

The court confirmed that the FBI was in charge of the site, also known as "Playpen", from February 20, 2015 until March 4 of the same year. The site had more than 215.000 registered users at the time.

According to USA Today, 137 people have been charged with crimes so far. In a statement he issued on the service, the former FBI agent Ron Hosko explained the rationale behind this kind of action:
