My personal problem with Yahoo Groups being what they are is my personal presumption that they generate rather little revenue from the members in relation to their use.
I was in several non-sexual groups, still am in fact, veterans and a group targeted towards other non sexual interests. Not once have I clicked on an advertising banner, and I cannot recall at this moment a single company that advertised there.
So, there is NO WAY that Yahoo is unaware of what exists in their groups, that would be simply impossible. So only one of two options exists as to why these horrible groups still flourish.
1. The people in control of Yahoo Groups are non-convicted sex offenders who siphon the materials and use them for their own personal sexual gratification.
2. Law Enforcement has directed Yahoo to not shutdown those groups because they use them as an investigative tool to capture predators. If shut down, the kids, and the predators would go deeper underground.
I say poppycock. If just ONE child can be saved by reviewing and shutting down inappropriate Yahoo Groups, then that should be done. LE surely does not catch every predator in the Groups.
I think people like Valerie would be VERY VERY effective in this type of mission. Attacking people already convicted is a coward's game, going after Yahoo and those not yet convicted in the groups would make her ilk true warriors in the cause against sexual abusers of children.
People not yet convicted will not play as nice and meek as a RSO on probation. Get a predator convicted, THEN you have accomplished something. Harassing RSOs is like dangling keys in front of a car thief, it is useless.
Finding and bringing to justice a sex offender not yet convicted is like breaking the fingers on a car thief as he tries to steal your car, it might save a child and its true "combat" in the war against predators.
I issue a challenge to all non-sex offenders:
Go after Yahoo Groups. You may have no idea just how disgusting and vile the groups are. If you truly want to protect children go after the Yahoo Groups.
I do not not know the key words to find the groups and I am not allowed into the adult based groups, nor would I go if I were, it would be like an alcoholic drinking light beer and saying it didnt count.
But those groups are in there, and in the time it took me to write this post, an adult probably has solicted sex from a minor, or vice versa, and someone is in danger.
Non sex offenders, save a child, go after Yahoo Groups!!!
Anyone who can help with the new "hip" keywords, please help them if they accept this mission. LE should be able to help on this.
