See this first part for more detailed context and background
Summary: This second part explains how Bill Gates' personal engineer was busted for pedophilia. Ryan explains: "Google detected all of that and sent this sort of stuff over to NCMEC as the law requires once they became aware of it. NCMEC reviewed it and concluded it was child porn, and then basically proceeded to search for more information about Rick Jones themselves. It says they gave up and basically compiled the report Google sent them and sent it off to the Seattle Police. The Seattle Police used this as probable cause to bootstrap a search warrant, which they then served on Google, and Google dumped the guy's entire account onto a DVD and sent it to the police. I liked the part about how they wouldn't send it to a PO Box. Occasionally, the people at the post office accidentally put something in the next box over. So Google probably didn't want an incident where that happened and someone got a DVD with Rick's child porn and emails in their box. They didn't even use the mail to send this to the detective. They used FedEx (and probably marked it signature required)."
