Playpen
Playpen was a child pornography website that operated through the Tor network from August 2014 to March 2015. After running the website for six months, the owner was arrested by the FBI. When it was shut down in March 2015, the site reportedly had over 215,000 users and contained approximately 23,000 sexually explicit images and videos of children, including toddlers.[1]
Controversially, after the arrests, the FBI moved the website to its own data center and continued to operate it for an additional 13 days, from February 20 to March 4, 2015, as part of Operation Pacifier. After transferring ownership, the website's viewership sharply increased by 100,000 users.
