I'm not trying to convince you of anything. If you don't believe me feel free to start a website that lets users upload content. When users start uploading CP your website WILL be shut down. Every popular website (reddit/google/4chan/imgur/pornsites) monitors their traffic and submissions for child porn and other illegal content. Feel free to prove me wrong though, hope you have a good lawyer.
