I have a little over 1 year of Bossman VODs and it consumes about 6 TB of storage. That's a mix of 1080p/1440p 30/60 FPS at a constant bitrate across thousands of streams. How the fuck does someone accumulate 9 TB of anything unless they're ripping every bluray out of the bargain bin? Just mindboggling. Fucking hate pedos.

But again, these are high quality stream VODs that span over a year, assuming each stream is like what? an hour, maybe 2. So, I've been thinking about it for a bit and it could be one of these, or all of them.
  • There is unrelated media grouped in the folder(s)/.zip file(s) along with the CSAM that accumlated 9TB
  • There's a dedicated 9TB .zip file filled to the brim with CSAM videos/pictures (most horrifying thought)
  • The feds did it

This kinda annoys me because I relied on this website for uploading VODs from Nova Online, because it's difficult/time consuming to condense his streams down because it's either mostly dead-air for hours at a time, or it's only worth clipping a few moments.

It's annoying because I am never one to shy away from getting the full archive of something, but I just wish child porn wasn't used as a weapon to take down free speech file uploaders.
 
If memory serves, a CP bust counts everything associated with the content as part of it (i.e, if you had a hundred megabytes of CSAM on your hard drive and 500 gigs of games and documents, it would count as 500 gigs of CSAM). No details yet obviously, but it wouldn't surprise me if the bulk was just general disturbing/disgusting material
I recall hearing this as well.

Why is it every time I hear about someone getting busted for CP, it's always that they have a fucking absurd amount. It's not just "this person has a few videos for them to get off to. This person has a few shame pics." It's always fucking terabytes.
If the whole “all data associated with CP is considered” thing is true, then it’s entirely possible that it was 9tb of pornographic material that happened to have a few illegal things in it.

That case you described with that guy having physical material is just insane, and it’s of course also possible that all 9TB was CP, we’ll never know.

I think I remember hearing something similar to this, around the time we found out how "fresh" Jared enjoyed his "footlongs", where every single frame of a video counts as a separate image and thus a new charge.

Bossman's streaming was incredibly schizophrenic. Anywhere from 5 minutes to many hours with only brief breaks inbetween depending on his mood and sometimes he'd have dozens of streams in a single day. Dude was a machine, it's too bad he's now been unjustly detained for doing nothing wrong.
 
The fact not only somebody uploaded 9 terabytes of it, but the fact there's enough out there to accumulate 9TB. What a blackpill thought.

I was about to say, the only people who would have 9TBs of csam would likely be the feds themselves. I guess your explanation makes sense, in a way. But I wounder why they count it as that. Is just to make seem worse for the court? As if 1mb would be any better.


There is probably no bigger hoarder and purveyor of C P than the feds. Uploading C P is one of the beloved classic ways to get something someone doesn't like booted off a web. You'd think it'd be extremely risky thing to do. Risk destroying your entire life and getting shanked as a ped by bubba in jail just to shut down a stupid website or service an ordinary person would have absolutely no reason to care about but for some reason its as popular as ever. Almost like whoever is doing it isn't afraid to be prosecuted at all.

What is "a honey pot", Alex?

Also it's a great way to slap on extra charges to people they really fucking hate. If they're frustrated with the way a criminal case is going, especially when it deals with computer crime they'll happen to magically stumble upon child porn on the defendant's computer. As was the case with pompompurin (pbuh), the owner of BreachForums. The feds were assmad they couldn't get what they wanted and the next day later they found CP on his hard drive.

I'm sure that if I had saved all the porn I've consumed in my lifetime, it wouldn't get to a single terabyte even. And if you add normal movies I've downloaded, the entire thing would not surpass 3 TBs. Now imagine a lone individual having 9 TBs of CP out there. 100% feds.

Speculation here:
I think they are holding onto RAW videos, either from others or their own "material". Take for an example a GoPro at its maxed out settings: 120 Mbps, 5K, 10 bit color. Record a few hours and you are already at 1 TB. Do this for years and you are probably around the 100 TB range, any small studio (or high production "Youtubers") working with 4K, 10 bit footage will cry about how hard drive space is a constant nightmare. Now with phones also reaching higher bitrates to capture 4K 10 bit color too, I don't think it's too far of a stretch that they use these settings for their "material". If you are risking jail for making said "content", they probably want as high video quality as possible, technically. Especially if it's a commodity. Now think about those hidden camera creepshots in locker rooms and bathrooms that are rolling in footage for hours per day, that will accumulate a lot of TB in data.

But it still doesn't neglect the idea of FEDs spamming CP to servers they don't like (political imageboards...). Don't forget that when Apple needed "training data" for their photo/video scanning spyware, the NSA provided them. I know retards will say it's "hashed" so nobody "saw anything", but they have people manually checking if it's real, so they do have references a.k.a stored CP.

I hope God is real and there's another Biblical flood. What the fuck? All my drives summed up is less.
9 terabytes of this shit. Whoever uploaded it should be torn to shreds painfully with a cheese grater, starting from feet.
Easy here with anti-government sentiments, man
 
Question, can't you automatically detect this kind of thing? It shouldn't be an issue to run ML to detect nudity and ML to detect children and if both come out as true then automatically refuse to upload an image file.

First reason: CSAM, like creepshots aren't necessarily nudity, but still sexual. This is why you got those perverted Youtube kids channels, since they are not detected by said method you mentioned.

Second reason: Large files (such as videos) need a lot of processing to compress /"convert" said file in order to run it through such a system (ML are designed for a certain type of input of the same type it was trained on). If it's a low streaming bitrate you can do it (well, at least if you got data centers as Facebook or Google). Anything larger than a standard streaming video format is a huge task. So if you were to upload large RAW files as I mentioned before, either they wouldn't bother to scan it or it would take a lot of power to do so.

Despite all the memes of the FEDs spying on you, the main problem they have is how to process it all.

You could probably do the nuclear option of refusing to upload any content featuring kids (if there isn't any ML trained to recognize CSAM, which you'd think would be available by law agencies towards companies, since you can't extract anything out of those anyways) and just randomly sample any video for downsampled images (say every 120 frames), which would be good enough for claiming you've done the effort and shouldn't nuke your processing power.

It would be pure insanity by any file hosting service to not do any effort to detect those things considering they are prime targets to be abused.

My homie has around 9tb of shit but it's like all the movies and TV shows imaginable being hosted on his private plex server. 9tb of cp is insane. Ffs 1 tb of vanilla porn is insane.
