Lianna has spent her whole career protecting kids. Inspired by Sage and her goals to help other survivors get illegal images off the internet, Lianna and her non-profit team push boundaries and create Arachnid, the mother of all web crawlers, to hunt down CSAM images in the darkest corners of the internet. But nothing prepared the Arachnid team for the firehose of what they found and that ended up putting the tiny Canadian non-profit on the global stage to take on Big Tech. From TVO Podcasts, the Investigative Journalism Bureau, The Toronto Star, and Piz Gloria Productions, this six-part podcast series follows the survivors' long-shot fight against the most powerful companies in the world to end a massive, global trade in child sex abuse imagery.

Ep 3: The Evidence Catcher

What if the worst thing that ever happened to you plays out every day, countless times, on anonymous computer screens all over the world.&nbsp;
Everyday tens of millions of images of child sexual abuse are circulating on global online platforms. And the proliferation of these images is getting worse as AI technology and deep fakes create an&nbsp;ever-expanding epidemic of online child sex exploitation.&nbsp;
The children depicted in those criminal images are REAL. Many are now adults held hostage by these disturbing images despite available technology like Canada&rsquo;s Project Arachnid, which detects these images and sends out removal notices.&nbsp;Platforms often resist action citing privacy laws.&nbsp;
But in response the survivors and a group of motivated supporters are banding together across the globe to protect kids.
Confronting their own trauma, they are speaking out, advocating for change internationally, demanding stronger laws that hold tech giants to account.&nbsp;
This six-part podcast series follows their long-shot fight against the most powerful companies in the world to end a massive, global trade in child sex abuse imagery.
