Wow .. so Voat is a place where you can find just about anything, apparently a pedos paradise ?
Interesting article I just found from 2015
https://mic.com/articles/120528/how-voat-became-reddit-s-creepy-alternative
Some snipits..
“ Because the site is based in Switzerland, its rules about child porn are more relaxed.”
Jailbait: In 2011, /r/jailbait, one of Reddit's most popular communities, was shut down. The subreddit featured suggestive photos of underage girls, most of which were ripped from their social media pages without permission. According to Gawker, pedophiles used the forum to connect and privately trade child pornography.
Voat now has its own network of jailbait forums. And because the site is based in Switzerland, its rules about child porn are more relaxed. "Do not post anyone under the assumed age of 16 fully nude," the sidebar reads. "If they are younger please post them with some key areas covered. This is done to protect Voat legally from Swiss law."
Some redditors are uncomfortable with these groups, or "subverses," as they're called on Voat. "It's seriously messed up, and they should be taken down," one person wrote.
Creepshots: Another banned Reddit community is now an active group on Voat. On the late /r/creepshots, users shared real sexualized photos of women and girls taken in public without their permission. These included upskirt shots in malls and covert cellphone images of students in school. One high school substitute teacher in Georgia was fired in 2012 after allegedly uploading a photo he took of a girl in his class.
Go ahead and look up all these subs yourselves. I went to see if they existed and they do . I am sickened by what I saw in the thumbnails !
Here are just a few . Who knows how many of these types of subs there really are here ?

I’m shocked and mad at myself for not thoroughly researching this place . The entire time we’ve been exposing pedos , they’ve been swarming here on voat !
I heard rumors of this , but thought they were lies ! If there ever was a good reason to delete my voat account , this is it !

Gawker's concern for the welfare of children is truly touching:

Ok that’s disgusting, but what does voat have to say about the pedo subs here ?

Gawkers just shilling.
Cc1914 ago
Maybe so , but I’m not

Shilling = untrue
There's huge pedo networks, just not here.

That's verifiably false, there are pedos here.
mrfetus ago
There is not a huge pedo network here.
EffYouJohnPodesta ago
if at least 1000 are here that's huge

I'm sure there are pedos here as regular users, but voat's not some hosting site.

Well if they are posting photos to the forums and those photos have CP in them then it technically hosts CP even if that wasn't the intended purpose of the site. I found at least one thumbnail of a post in a forum called PedosOnVoat which was intended (supposedly) to expose pedophiles that appeared to be underage girls in a sexually provocative photo with underwear on, so I assume that the person who posted that could have seen more than what he was posting when he created the thread. I also heard there is a frequent user named Aged who is a huge pedo, and entire forums exist for posting the photos.
I also saw an old post claiming we don't know who owns Voat. Apparently it's PuttItOut but we don't know who he is. All we know is it's a .co.
Sorry I do not know more or have proof, that is the realm of law enforcement and I'm not about to click on the forums, though I have encountered many users who try to bait me into doing so.
