Thank you very much for contacting the Internet Watch Foundation.
Our role is to trace and assess potentially illegal content and then to work with the internet industry, police agencies, international Hotlines and other relevant bodies in the UK and abroad to have that content removed and potential offenders investigated. There may be occasions when potentially illegal websites reported to us remain active for a while after we have taken action to have them taken down. We keep this situation under constant review and persist in our efforts to have them removed.
Due to the volume of reports we process we regret that we are unable to reply personally to every incoming message. However please be assured that your report will be thoroughly investigated where possible within 24 hours of receipt during weekdays and the next working day after weekends or bank holidays unless exceptional circumstances prevail.
Have you been distressed by what you have seen?
We recognise that some people are upset or distressed by their experience of being exposed to the reported content. You may wish to consider talking about this experience with a friend, your GP or a professional counsellor as recommended by the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. Visit their website at http://www.bacp.co.uk/
Do you have concerns about the safety of a child?
If you think a child is in immediate risk call 999.
If you have immediate concerns about the safety of a child then please contact the NSPCC Child Protection Helpline on 0808 800 5000 or visit their website at http://www.nspcc.org.uk/
Are you worried about your own thoughts and behaviour towards children?
If you are worried about your own thoughts or behaviour towards children you can get help at the Stop it Now website at http://www.stopitnow.org.uk/
The remainder of this response considers the various types of content which might be concerning you and explains whether we can deal with it and, if so, how we will act.
Reports of potentially illegal child sexual abuse content
If we find the content is hosted in the UK then we will work in partnership with the police and the ISP or host company to have the offender(s) investigated and the content taken down.
If the content is assessed as potentially illegal under domestic legislation but hosted outside the UK then we notify the Child Exploitation and Online Protection Centre (CEOP)(UK) who then disseminate that information to the relevant national law enforcement agency via Interpol.
If the country where the content is hosted operates a Hotline like ours then we will also notify them. A list of those countries providing hotlines can be found at http://www.inhope.org
If we assess the content you reported as not to contain images of child sexual abuse but instead it depicts adult content then we can only take action if it is judged to be criminally obscene and is hosted in the UK
Criminal liability
If you have inadvertently accessed suspected child sexual abuse images online, or been the victim of an unsolicited email that possibly contained child sexual abuse content then we advise you to delete all records of the reported material from your computer. Under current UK law, accidental exposure to such content does not make you criminally liable, but we must advise you that this is not the case if you deliberately seek out such content.
Newsgroups
We regularly monitor newsgroups. If a newsgroup is found to regularly contain indecent images of children or is advertising that fact then we have a system to recommend to all UK ISPs that they should not carry the suspect newsgroup.
Peer-to-Peer (P2P)
We are aware of many file sharing programs and realise that they are open to abuse. The services are based on a peer-to-peer system, without any ISP involvement.
The Police are responsible for investigating apparent criminal behaviour by individual internet users but we do pass on reports to the police. If you have information that could assist in identifying a crime or the prevention of crime, please notify your local police force.
Criminally obscene content
If the content you reported is verified as potentially illegal criminally obscene content hosted in the UK then we will work in partnership with the relevant police agency and the ISP or host company to have the content removed and the offender (s) investigated.
We cannot take any action if the content is hosted outside the UK.
Incitement to racial hatred
Our current remit permits us to consider potential incitement to racial hatred content providing it is hosted in the UK. In such cases we liaise with the police and the ISP or host company concerned. This might result in the removal of the content and a criminal investigation by the police.
As with criminally obscene material, we cannot take any action if the content is hosted outside the UK.
Filtering and blocking solutions
There are ways to prevent you and your family from being inadvertently exposed to potentially illegal or potentially harmful content. The most popular method is to install software on your computer that filters and blocks content that you don't want to see.

Studie provedená akademiky ze dvou amerických univerzit ukázala, že automatizace trestání delikventů není vhodné řešení – a to ani pro tak jednoduché případy, jako je překračování povolené rychlosti. „Je zákon v knihách a je zákon na ulici“, řekl přímo jeden z autorů studie.
Švédsko předložilo ECHA návrh na zákaz dalších oblastí použití olova (z těch několika málo, kde se ještě tento kov smí používat). Nyní začíná proces konzultací, finální rozhodnutí EK by mělo proběhnout okolo poloviny roku 2014.
FinSpy je software používaný vládami méně svobodných zemí k vystopování podvratných živlů. Můžete si přečíst několik článků analyzujících tento spyware, který běží na všech hlavních desktopových platformách (Windows, Linux, Mac OS X) i na mobilech (iPhone, Android, BlackBerry, Symbian, Windows Mobile): 1, 2, 3, 4.
Finská obdoba OSA/BSA zjišťuje majitele připojení s IP adresami, ze kterých došlo k nelegálnímu sdílení, a pak jim posílá dopisy vymáhající značnou pokutu a požadující podpis NDA.
Američan byl vzat do vazby a obviněn kvůli tomu, že instaloval do aut tajné přihrádky, které byly následně zneužity pro účely převozu drog a peněz za drogy. Ještě před zatčením se DEA pokoušela z onoho muže udělat svého konfidenta.
Za pouhé dva týdny se hodnota Bitcoinu, decentralizované digitální měny, zdvojnásobila. 19.3. stál $50, teď se na největší burze Mt.Gox obchoduje za $100, tedy 2000 korun.
Jeroen Dijsselbloem, dánský předseda eurozóny, řekl, že budoucí problémy s Eurem se budou řešit podobným způsobem, jako na Kypru - tedy znárodněním části úspor.
