Imagine that Ironworks is being patrolled by worlds police. I find this interesting and I am all for it if it can prevent crime against children.

LONDON (AP) - Police in Britain, Australia, Canada and the United States are planning joint patrols of Internet chat rooms in search of pedophiles, a senior British officer said Wednesday.

Forces from the four countries hope to introduce a "24/7 police presence on the Internet," said Assistant Chief Const. Jim Gamble of the National Crime Squad. Speaking at the end of a three-day meeting involving the squad, the FBI, the Royal Canadian Mounted Police and the Australian Federal Police, Gamble said officers in different countries would take turns to keep a round-the-clock watch on the Net.

While the number of officers assigned to chat patrol is expected to be modest, the forces hope their program will have a deterrent effect.
