The Australian High Tech Crime Centre (AHTCC) is trying to bring the rules of the "physical world" to the online environment in its international joint initiative to put police in internet chat-rooms said Alastair MacGibbon the body's director.
Two weeks after ZDNet News in Britain handed over ID information on suspected paedophiles believed to be abusing the Yahoo! Messenger (IM) service, the Internet portal is still unable to confirm whether it has blocked the offending accounts.
Internet portal Yahoo! UK has finally recruited an "inspector" charged with responsibility for dealing with paedophile content in its chatrooms.
A government-funded Internet safety body has launched a project to boost students and teachers' ability to avert online threats just days after a Bill to curb Internet sex crimes was introduced into the Senate.
Suspected paedophiles as young as 13 have been arrested by the largest proactive investigation ever undertaken in the UK to crack down on Internet child pornography.
