摘要

在 "暗网 "上,虐童者群体之间的社区建设为不雅图像的大规模传播提供了便利,并支持个人成为更熟练、更危险的罪犯。卧底警察的任务是假扮罪犯收集情报;然而,我们对这些群体的性质知之甚少,尤其是作为一个 "真正 "感兴趣的局外人,如何在语言上接近他们。本研究分析了自称为 "新手"、希望加入已有虐待社区的人在与虐待儿童相关的暗网论坛上发表的帖子中的修辞手法(Swales,1990)。研究发现,在新手试图加入网络虐童社区的过程中,能力和专业知识的表达是核心。去潜伏"(De-lurking)被认为是在网络论坛上表现能力的一种有用策略。这些发现可以为网上便衣警察的任务以及罪犯的优先排序提供支持。

“I read the rules and know what is expected of me”: The performance of competence and expertise in ‘newbie’ offenders’ membership requests to dark web child abuse communities

Community-building among groups of child abusers on the ‘dark web’ facilitates the large-scale distribution of indecent imagery and supports individuals in becoming more skilled, more dangerous offenders. Undercover police are tasked with posing as offenders to gather intelligence; however, we know little about the nature of these groups, and especially how one might approach them linguistically as an ‘authentically’ interested outsider. This study analyses rhetorical moves (Swales, 1990) in forum posts from child abuse-related dark web fora by self-identifying ‘newbies’ hoping to join established abuse communities. It identifies 12 distinct moves used in the pursuit to join online abuse communities and finds that expressions of competence and expertise are central to newbies’ attempts to gain community membership. ‘De-lurking’ is identified as a useful strategy in the performance of competence in online forums. These findings can support online undercover policing tasks as well as offender prioritisation.
