So I got to thinking and did some checking and reviewing and it occured to me.... CP is PROTECTED under the new laws that are made to prevent it.
Under the new laws... anything "sexually explicit" is required to have proper documentation, ID and blah blah blah. But a picture of a woman posing for let's say... art's sake... is not covered under this law.
So I read some more and ya know... no where in it does it say that I can't have a picture of a 13 year old fully naked... infact, I could make a site full of 13 year olds posing and it would be considered... legal! According to this new law. In fact, the DOJ would have no grounds to knock on my door to ask for ID's of these children. It's "art."
It occured to me that 99% of all CP reports I've seen or heard of on the news, boards or what have you consisted of just children posing for the camera. Sites featuring very young looking people, or actual young people... who pose nude. Nothing "sexually explicit" at all.
This law is supposed to be made to "combat CP" and put an end to these sites but in reality, the site gives the DOJ no grounds to ask them for documents or ID of those children.
I've seen countless discussions on 2257, and countless various angles that people have looked at this law... and granted, it's obvious it's designed to just put us in check and raid us at their leisure.... we all know it.
But this seems like a rather large glaringly wide open hole in the law that I really have not seen much, if any discussion on.
Thoughts?
