Mexico has the highest circulation of pornography depicting minors and the second in online production of this material, with about 85,000 exploited minors, revealed a study ordered by the Mexican Senate.

During the "Battling Children and Teenager Pornography" forum, which took place last Sept 25 in Mexico City, the Mexican Senate revealed that sexual exploitation of minors generates $2 billion worldwide, a figure that overshadows the profits produced by drug and weapons trafficking, according to Mexican newspaper Milenio.

The poorest Mexican states like Oaxaca, Chiapas, Guerrero, Puebla, Veracruz, Tabasco and San Luis Potosí are the regions where children are the most vulnerable, declared Rosi Orozco, president of the United Against Human Trafficking Commission, where "traffickers kidnap them to film them, photograph them and expose them online."

The problem is made worse since Mexican cybercrime legislation does not force internet service providers to provide information on users committing these crimes, said Jacobo Bello and José Héctor Cortés, experts on cybercrime of the Attorney General of the Mexican Republic.
