    If the man did not distribute the pictures, how did the government find out? Did a cloud service rat him out? Or spyware?

      He was found extorting little girls with nude pics he generated of them.

      Edit: So I guess he just generated them. In that case, how’d they become public? I guess this is the problem if you don’t read the article.
