I know of two cases of private reproof for child sex offenders and after reading John Cedars story, it sicken's me to admitt we actually reproved brothers for porn both private and pubically. Porn is so minor compared to the horrible sins we covered over, what is wrong with this group of false teachers who are being lead by the Blind?

False sense of justice.

Porn is not a sin you need to tell the elders (I knew plenty of elders who had no problem looking at porn) about, the elders have no authority from Jesus Christ to forgive or give spiritual advice because most of the elders don't know what the Bible speaks because (Matthew to Revelation) the Governing Body has made it clear the New Testament was penned only for their self-authenticated messiahs (annointed members), not the Great Crowd (rank and file JWs).
My tour of the Watchtower our fearless leaders attacked Christendom's religious preachers for the same things they are doing themselves. When you think about it, actually the Watchtower is more wicked than Christendom because Christendom allows her members to leave their religion without attacking them personally or keeping track of each members sins in a (Secret-tary man) the Kingdom Hall's safe and Bethel's file cabinets. Why should a JW have complete faith in a organization who failed it's members with false prophecy and destructive practices leaving many of their elderly members impoverished.
Who is more wicked than the religions Mother attacks because she claims to know the Bible better the religious primordial soup she slithered out from. Why am I disgusted with the Watchtower? They rob people's ability to think and attack the mind as a "terrible thing to use" when reading the Bible and comparing it to the practices of the Organization. In the Watchtower's brochure to attract Islamic converts, they tell the Moslem to research their religion and check what truths emerged from the very begining. JWs deserve to go to Gehenna because they do not read God's Word, very few of the members ever talked about God's Word and were very cautious using Jesus Christ's name. JWs are better off doing bad than using the name of Jesus Christ frequently, it's better to get drunk, watch violent movies or play video games than use Jesus Christ's name. JWs will act weird if a member mentions "I can feel the Holy Spirit working in my life" or "lord Jesus Christ has been so good to his sheep" and will report you to the elders quickly. I could mention I watched some "R" rated movies or went to a questionable concert and those same Witnessses who reported me would boldy say ""We loved that show (Sex in the City) (Dexter) (Orange is the new Black), (House of Cards), and "I was so drunk when Dexter cut those bad guys in to pieces". Do you see something wrong with a group of people who despise using the name of Jesus Christ or get weird when you mention the Holy Spirit? Anti Christs.
Why does the Watchtower tell everyone in Christendom and Babylon the Great to examine your religion and "make sure of all things" your being taught and once you become a follower of the Watchtower, your told to shut your brain off so it does not stumble you. It's easy to accept false teachers once you hand over your freedom in exchange for spiritual bondage. Peter wrote about this in 2 Peter 2:
2 Peter 2
Holman Christian Standard Bible (HCSB)
The Judgment of False Teachers
2 But there were also false prophets among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you. They will secretly bring in destructive heresies, even denying the Master who bought them, and will bring swift destruction on themselves. 2 Many will follow their unrestrained ways, and the way of truth will be blasphemed because of them. 3 They will exploit you in their greed with deceptive words. Their condemnation, pronounced long ago, is not idle, and their destruction does not sleep.
4 For if God didn’t spare the angels who sinned but threw them down into Tartarus [ a ] and delivered them to be kept in chains [ b ] of darkness until judgment; 5 and if He didn’t spare the ancient world, but protected Noah, a preacher of righteousness, and seven others, [ c ] when He brought a flood on the world of the ungodly; 6 and if He reduced the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah to ashes and condemned them to ruin, [ d ] making them an example to those who were going to be ungodly; [ e ] 7 and if He rescued righteous Lot, distressed by the unrestrained behavior of the immoral 8 (for as he lived among them, that righteous man tormented himself day by day with the lawless deeds he saw and heard)— 9 then the Lord knows how to rescue the godly from trials and to keep the unrighteous under punishment until the day of judgment, 10 especially those who follow the polluting desires of the flesh and despise authority.
Bold, arrogant people! They do not tremble when they blaspheme the glorious ones; 11 however, angels, who are greater in might and power, do not bring a slanderous charge against them before the Lord. [ f ] 12 But these people, like irrational animals—creatures of instinct born to be caught and destroyed—speak blasphemies about things they don’t understand, and in their destruction they too will be destroyed, 13 suffering harm as the payment for unrighteousness. They consider it a pleasure to carouse in the daytime. They are spots and blemishes, delighting in their deceptions [ g ] as they feast with you. 14 They have eyes full of adultery and are always looking for sin. They seduce unstable people and have hearts trained in greed. Children under a curse! 15 They have gone astray by abandoning the straight path and have followed the path of Balaam, the son of Bosor, [ h ] who loved the wages of unrighteousness 16 but received a rebuke for his transgression: A donkey that could not talk spoke with a human voice and restrained the prophet’s irrationality.
17 These people are springs without water, mists driven by a whirlwind. The gloom of darkness has been reserved for them. 18 For by uttering boastful, empty words, they seduce, with fleshly desires and debauchery, people who have barely escaped [ i ] from those who live in error. 19 They promise them freedom, but they themselves are slaves of corruption, since people are enslaved to whatever defeats them. 20 For if, having escaped the world’s impurity through the knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, they are again entangled in these things and defeated, the last state is worse for them than the first. 21 For it would have been better for them not to have known the way of righteousnessthan, after knowing it, to turn back from the holy command delivered to them. 22 It has happened to them according to the true proverb: A dog returns to its own vomit, [ j ] and, “a sow, after washing itself, wallows in the mud.”

Simple - the congregation and organisation stands to lose much face and be publicly humiliated if child abuse gets out there in the public or legal realm, but the media or courts don't care about porn addiction.
It's all about saving face for 'Jehovah's organisation'.

I don't remember the exact term for this, but the public reproof for porn is a distraction method. Like a smokescreen.
By making such a big thing of porn, it becomes unimaginable in the minds of the sheeples that the pedophilia even exists in the borg, else they would hear of it. Or so they think.
