“The former acting cybersecurity director for the US Department of Health and Human Services, Tim DeFoggi, was convicted yesterday on three child porn charges. As reported by Wired, DeFoggi is the sixth suspect to be caught by the FBI’s Operation Torpedo, which used controversial methods of defeating the Tor anonymizing software in order to find child porn suspects. One site frequented by DeFoggi was PedoBook, hosted by a Nebraska man who was convicted earlier for his role in the operations. DeFoggi used names such as ‘fuckchrist’ and ‘PTasseater’ to register on the sites, where he could view more than 100 videos and more than 17,000 child porn images.”
