Exactly, why is 00 acting like it being on a BSU facility computer is a defense. That bullshit is absurd.

It is quite easy to end up on a site of any kind through innocent behavior.
For example, it is well known not to be a good idea to click on attachments to email, which is how a lot of malware is distributed.
Often on quite respectable sites what looks like a link going somewhere else can be hijacked. Adobe flash and other often used browser add on software or phone apps are frequently found to have flaws that allow sites to be completely hijacked.
Major domains with high powered IT often serve ads and those ads are sometimes hijacked, lead to unintended sites with malware or other unwanted content just a click away.
Most users get in trouble not by searching for it but by being duped into clicking on something. Once corrupted a computer could easily be serving as a relay to transport or access content and distribute it and the owner/user might not even know it is being used that way.
The web is dangerous.
I am not saying the BSU network is any worse than any other, but it does have a lot of publicly accessed computers and a lot of student and faculty users who are not security conscious. Shared thumb drives, shared files through other means incouding email, all are vectors for unwanted files on any computer. More likely on a college campus in some ways.

It is NOT easy to stumble across child porn. Poor little Cics professor was duped into accidentally finding child porn?? Wow. You must think guys like him are just naive and innocent little web surfers. (And if that's the case he wasn't intelligent enough to be teaching in college). You'll go to ridiculous lengths to defend this guy. Are you afraid of "being duped" or something? Following your logic, since I work at BSU I have corrupt and or illegal web sites and content just lurking on my computer, just waiting to be innocently stumbled upon by me. Even dark web stuff you have to be really savvy and twisted to find. Like child porn.

Update: the SOB admitted he'd been looking at child porn for about years. So be done with the oopsie defense.

Following your logic, since I work at BSU I have corrupt and or illegal web sites and content just lurking on my computer, just waiting to be innocently stumbled upon by me. Even dark web stuff you have to be really savvy and twisted to find. Like child porn. No, tI was concerned only that traffic from his computer might not have been initiated by him or was otherwise innocent. I did not defend him but was not willing to condemn him based on the report made. This report clarifies the situationIn fact, there is another concern. What might technically be "child porn" under some criminal statutes is not at all hard core, and pictures including classic works of art have been wrongly classified as pornographic through our history. So look out for those Library computers full of portraits and pictures of nude children... Of course, I would expect a good number of University computers have downloaded or viewed what qualifies as pornography at some point. The equivalent of an older generation squirreling away a copy of Penthouse under the mattress. Child porn seems a lot less likely but even relatively soft core porn sites could have material (or ads or links to material) that might be classified as "child porn" so as I think I said originally the IT staff has to use some judgment.

No. Not ready to always trust the authorities.
Don't know why you would argue with an obviously true statement.

Apparently the sweep isn't over. I hear there are a few more that are about to go down.

Apparently we and the police just don't understand 'art'.
