"Using the term child pornography lessens the impact and tends to
legitimize it."

"Let's be clear about this, these are pictures of children being
abused. The aim of our work is to reduce the people viewing abusive
images of children, and thereby reduce the number of children being
abused." said Paula Parker

Sifting through images on a computer can be time consuming and
psychologically draining task for the investigators. So the department
acquired a "Categorization for Pictures (C4P)" software that can
calculate hashes of each picture and categorize each image
automatically. The investigator has to only categorize the image once,
and thereafter any copy of that image on any computer can be caught by
C4P automatically. This means the investigators has to view 50% to 60%
fewer images now, and prosecute a lot more pedophiles.
