True, but i see 2257 statue as being the way to shutdown the frontline of "obscenity" not just about protecting children from being exploited.
It seems to be very simple... if a webmaster can't tell the prosecutor where a suspected underaged or "obscene" picture was purchased from, then they have violated 2257 statue and can have their website(s) shutdown and go to jail.
The current approach by the Justice Department is to equate 2257 with protecting children... a very emotionally charged subject that the RIAA has used to equate P2P with CP.
The testing of the secondary record keeping responsibiltities of the webmasters for 2257 hasn't been done yet, but it's very possible.
