79 Child porn websites removed
ASACP currently receives 15 - 20 child pornography
reports a day. Out of these 143 child pornography websites were reported
to the authorities in February 2000 and 79 of these websites have already
been removed from the internet. We would like to thank all participating
adult websites as well as all of those netizens that have reported sites
in the past. We hope to continue to grow and contribute to the fight
against child pornography into the new
millennium
.
Many netizens have requested info regarding the legal
actions taken by authorities regarding their reports. Unfortunately
we are unable to give out any information regarding ongoing investigations
by the authorities. We continue to work closely with both the U.S. Customs
Child Pornography Enforcement Program and the F.B.I. We assure you that
every valid report is important to us and investigated thoroughly by
the authorities.
