Pornography on the Internet

[jaguar]

By browsing you are downloading the content to view it. I assume in most legal cases though downloading is defined by acutally intentionally saving the content. One conundrum solved.

Also, who would prosecute whom in case where 'x' is one country, viewing something in another country whilst the server is in another country being fed by 'y' in another country? Mind boggling.

X is in country one. The server is in country two. Unless the content is live and is being streamed from another location then only two counties are involved. X would be charged by the laws of the country he is in. The server adn the streaming location could also be charged under their own laws.

How can I protect my children whilst using the computer?
Isnt all pornography wrong?
Is it possible to distinguish wrong by one downloading as opposed to browsing?
Do different states have different laws concerning this stuff?
Are there dedicated law enforcement teams monotoring these sites?
If one is arrested for downloading material, why not stop it at the source?

1: You can't. get over it. It won't kill them.
2: Not in my book. That is entirely a matter of personal opinion. Child porn is very different to overage porn.
3: See the top of my post.
4: Yes
5: Yes.
6: Because the sorce is hard to find, moves like quicksilver and is often in countries with lax laws.

A site may offer 'teen photos' but who can prove they are teens, they could be older or younger.

Yup. Welcome to the internet mate. Its the closest we have to an unregulated communication medium. As a result its full of scams, lies, porn and blogs full of teenage agnst. Its also full of free discussion, different and interesting ideas and raw creativity.
