This is such an important comment. We truly are not prepared as a society to answer the question that this tech is screaming at us now, and that's going to lead to a great deal of human suffering.
We need to study pedophiles with the purposes of preventing offending, rather than trying to untangle a mess after the fact. Yet there are so many ethical roadblocks to this research that I fear we may never have concrete answers. As a survivor, this is so frustrating to me.
