Tor hack proposed to catch criminals
Robert Lemos, SecurityFocus 2007-03-08

The Tor network--a distributed system of computers that anonymizes the source of network traffic--has a slew of beneficial uses: Human-rights workers, the military and journalists all use the system. However, the anonymity of Tor has also attracted seedier elements as well: digital pirates, online criminals and, quite possibly, child pornographers.

So you're making a blanket statement that those who are seeking to exploit children are not intelligent enough to use alternative operating systems like Linux or MAC OS? Something tells me that this theory of yours holds no merit. Tor being available to windows users as well as Linux and Mac OS is not the problem.
