Terrorists funded by porn sites
"'TERRORISTS' FUNDED BY PORN SITES. At the same press
conference, Chepchugov said that the profits generated by
pornographic websites worldwide play a significant role in the
financing of extremist and terrorist organizations, strana.ru
reported on 4 December. He estimated that a child-porn site can bring
in as much as $30,000 per month in illegal revenue. Since March,
Chepchugov's office has been tracking 3,000 Internet sites and has
launched 14 criminal cases. He said that, in addition to pornographic
sites, his agency monitors sites "with extremist tendencies." RC"
