ELI5: If the NSA knows everything we do on the Internet, how come there hasn't been a huge "child porn sting" on the news with countless arrests being made?

Simply put.. NSA can supposedly see everyones browsing histories, downloads, etc etc.  How come we don't see anything on the news about lots of people suddenly being arrested for CP?  It's either that the NSA doesn't actually see everything, or there are a lot less pedo's than the media would have us believe (faith in humanity partially restored?...)

WHY NO BIG ARREST MADE?

There are a lot of points in your post, so I'll address them one by one

1. The NSA absolutely does not see everything, that'd be ridiculous. They wish they could, but there's just too much traffic
2. Paedophiles use some fairly inventive ways of hiding the fact that they're browsing child pornography, such as Tor, VPNs, direct connections to other pedos
3. There are a lot more paedophiles than the media thinks there are. There are a lot *less* child molesters than the media thinks there are.
4. The NSA doesn't give two fucks about child pornography because they're not actually interested in morality, they're just doing what they've been told to do which is "stop the terrorism".
