…hundreds of thousands of users

Six people with links to the network were arrested.
I can understand only arresting 6 people, because I doubt very many people had their hands on the actual website. But the fact that hundreds of thousands of people actually interacted with the site is downright mind boggling.
If it's any comfort (it might not be), a few hundred thousand out of like 8 billion is a pretty small percentage. It's troubling that it evaded the law for long enough to accumulate that many users in one place, though :/
It's 1 in ten thousand. Likely much more in Europe or North America, accounting for people without reliable Internet access and non-English speakers. There's statistically at least a hand full in your city, if it's larger than a village
it could be you, it could be me, it could even be-
