Irish hotline helps close child pornography websites

A complaint by an Irish person to an internet hotline in Ireland has resulted in the removal of a network of child pornography websites in Australia.

The anonymous complaint was made to Hotline.ie, a service established by Irish internet service providers to allow members of the public to report websites that contain child sexual abuse material.

Following the complaint, the Australian Communications and Media Authority (ACMA) moved to disable the websites that were providing access to the content
