Sad first in the Netherlands for the distribution of child abuse material

The numbers and figures that see the light of day for the spread of child abuse material via the internet are shocking. Specifically, during 2017, 259 thousand videos and images of child abuse were removed from the World Wide Web. Their removal was due to the immediate intervention of 48 open Complaints Lines, which operate in 43 countries around the world.

The first place in the list from where the material came from is held by America and the Netherlands, while the third place is occupied by Russia.
