Oh wow that's really fucked up.

Here in Austria the police is not very well trained on any computer related crimes either. When I initially found the first CSAM image my first instinct was to call the non-emergency line of the Police and the officer told me to "print out the images, and bring them to the next police station".

I had a thought that this would be a very very stupid thing to do so I contacted Interpol and they sad basically "omg whatever you do, don't print those out and don't carry them around"

Wow, I think that would have been an issue here even before the change, only then the prosecutor could have decided to stop the proceedings before it even went to court.

Ahh, austria police. A few years ago, my neighbour had an aggressive episode and ended up telling me "I bring di um". Naiv as I was, I called the police, which prompts answered "Do kemma nix tuan".

Can't you get a lawyer to file a restraining order? It unfortunately costs time and money, but at least it would deal with your neighbor.

How does a restraining order help with a mentally unstable person? Do you seriously believe in time of crisis, they will remember "Oh yeah, but there is this outstanding restraining order, so I need to calm down"?

That lets them solve an easier crime than finding the person who uploaded them or even who made them. Sounds like the police are pretty smart there. "Today we busted an individual who was intending to distribute child porn."
