In a significant coordinated law enforcement effort, authorities have dismantled Kidflix, an illegal streaming platform for child sexual abuse material (CSAM), during "Operation Stream." This operation involved 38 countries over several years and resulted in the identification of 1,393 offenders, with 79 arrests linked to both uploading and abusing children. The platform, operational since 2021, had 1.8 million users and showcased around 91,000 unique videos, with authorities seizing over 3,000 electronic devices in ongoing investigations.
A total of 1.8 million users worldwide logged on to the platform between April 2022 and March 2025, according to Europol.
'By uploading CSAM, verifying video titles and descriptions and assigning categories to videos, offenders could earn tokens, which were then used to view content,' Europol said.
