Absolutely true. If there are new ways to commit crimes, there must be new ways to fight crimes. Child abuse has been accelerated greatly by technology and we are fighting it with sticks and stones because we don't want to accept that the terribleness of these crimes is worth giving up some of our privacy to stop.

> Child abuse has been accelerated greatly by technology
Any source for that statement ? My understanding is that child abuse - while still existing - is at an all time low in modern western societies. Children working in brothel used to be common, children getting abused by the church used to be a well know fact etc.
Overall a using children is harder than ever even if it has not completely disappeared.
Technology - which allows efficient transfer of information, testimonies etc - is instrumental to that evolution.
