> Child abuse has been accelerated greatly by technology

Any source for that statement ? My understanding is that child abuse - while still existing - is at an all time low in modern western societies. Children working in brothel used to be common, children getting abused by the church used to be a well know fact etc.

Overall a using children is harder than ever even if it has not completely disappeared.

Technology - which allows efficient transfer of information, testimonies etc - is instrumental to that evolution.
