I feel like a sensible realistic course of action with this is it needs to be in the act of sharing/distributing. It would be way to broad otherwise as the tools that generate this stuff have unlimited purposes. Obvious child situations should be dealt with in the act of production of but the enforcement mechanism needs to be on the sharing/distribution part. Unfortunately analogy is blame the person not the tool on this one.
Right. And honestly, this should already be covered under existing harassment laws.
Yeah, I feel like if you find this shit on someone's computer, whether they shared it or not, there should be some consequences. Court-mandated counseling at a minimum.
