Were you the parent of a kid whose abuse was put on the internet and used as a matrix to generate endless child pornography, would you be happy about that usage of your kid's material?

I thought most perps were parents, or close relatives, in which case the answer is an indecisive 50% yes/no.

But [1] from 1996 says

> There is increasing recognition that incest offenders may abuse children outside as well as inside the home. In a community sample of over 500 self-admitted male sexual offenders, Abel and colleagues(1987) found that 23.3% of men had offended against both family and non family members; 12% had offended exclusively against family members.

I'm guessing that means 65% are non-family, making your point very relevant.
