@amerika >Best way to protect children is to remove pedophiles.
Unfortunately, the easy "solution" to problems most often doesn't work.

I'm amazed how many people don't even understand that pedophilia is an *attraction* to prepubescent children and nothing else - a kind of wrongthink.

Before you start with your accusations, I don't have any attraction to prepubescent children, so I am not a pedophile by definition.


Research and criminology has revealed that most sickos that harm children aren't in fact pedophiles - the criminal acts are typically (but not always) opportunistic.

Other research has reveled that many sicko pizza viewers aren't pedophiles and view such illegal material for reasons unknown.

Even if a proprietary brain scanner was developed that could detect wrongthink like pedophilia and allow for precrime jailing, that would really only lead to a small reduction in harm to children - but governments seem to be fixated on achieving such or similar schemes (like ((((AI)))) pattern matching models) , rather than actually trying to effectively trying to solve the world's problems.
