Comparing paedophile activity in different P2P systems

Measurement and Analysis of P2P Activity Against Paedophile Content

Peer-to-peer (P2P) systems are nowadays widely used to exchange files, and it is acknowledged that they host much paedophile activity. However, current knowledge of this specific activity remains very limited, and almost no tool exist for user protection. Likewise, tools and knowledge for policy making and law enforcement are far from sufficient. The goal of the Measurement and Analysis of P2P ...

Quantification of Paedophile Activity in a Large P2P System Measurement and Analysis of P2P Activity Against Paedophile Content project http://antipaedo.lip6.fr

In this work, we explore two basic but crucial statistics: the fraction of paedophile queries entered by users of a large P2P file exchange system, and the fraction of involved users. In order to do so, we carefully inspect two huge datasets of more than one hundred million queries recorded in two very different contexts. We then use a state-of-the-art tool for automatic detection of paedophile...

Quantifying paedophile activity in a large P2P system

Increasing knowledge of paedophile activity in P2P systems is a crucial societal concern, with important consequences on child protection, policy making, and internet regulation. Because of a lack of traces of P2P exchanges and rigorous analysis methodology, however, current knowledge of this activity remains very limited. We consider here a widely used P2P system, eDonkey, and focus on two key...

Current situation regarding our knowledge of paedophile activity in P2P networks

Technical report on Maps of paedophile activity

As policy-making and law enforcement institutions generally operate at the national level, or at least at a regional level (Europe for instance), we studied geolocated recordings available in a large dataset obtained by a measurement of keyword-based queries submitted to a large P2P server. We observed that the fractions of paedophile queries may be orders of magnitude larger in some countries ...
