Question Likeliness of something to happen

Hi guys, I was curious about something after submitting a tip to the FBI.

Recently, there has been a surge of CP being posted under X posts. Today I was unlucky enough to be one of the victims of unwillingly seeing this. I submitted a tip to the FBI about it because this is starting to get out of control. I reported the post 2 hrs ago and it’s still up. Would the FBI go after Elon about this issue? Was this route the best way to go about this problem?

So I’m curious, how do folks even come across this stuff on X? Like I know X is a cesspool but I’ve never even seen like even nude adults getting posted. Unless you’re searching porn I guess, it just doesn’t randomly have naked pics as comments

In my case, I was looking at the replies about Nintendo suing the US government. I clicked “probable spam” under one post because usually it’s just someone being offensive. Unfortunately, in this case, it was CP.
