Kidflix, one of the largest platforms used to host, share, and stream child sexual abuse material (CSAM) on the dark web, was shut down on March 11 following a joint action coordinated by German law enforcement.

Dubbed Operation Stream, this joint international investigation is led by the State Criminal Police of Bavaria (Bayerisches Landeskriminalamt) and the Bavarian Central Office for the Prosecution of Cybercrime (ZCB).

The joint operation was also supported by Europol analysts from the European Cybercrime Centre (EC3), who analyzed thousands of videos, providing evidence to facilitate the investigation.

Operation Stream started in 2022 and has so far led to 79 arrests, 1,393 suspects identified, and over 3,000 electronic devices seized between March 10 and March 23, 2025.

For me as a German, it is a shame that Germans are always to be found among these child abusers. At least the german police did a good job this time
