- garply 17y agoHave you worked in the porn industry? Edit: This was a sincere question, not sure why it was voted down.
- ErrantX 17y agoNo, computer forensics (so, yes, that is a relatively expert opinion)
- jacquesm 17y agoWhy does an on-topic question that gets answered deserve two downvotes? (I can only fix the one...) It's not like he's insulting anyone by asking a valid question, there are not that many professions where you get information on the kind of images that are and are not legit, the porn industry is probably the major one.
- ErrantX 17y agoI was intentionally vague too to provoke such a question (in the hope a discussion would evolve)
- tentonova2 17y agoIn which country? In the US, that's my understanding of the law, but this is in the UK.
- jacquesm 17y agoErrantX is from the UK and probably has more expertise in this area than anybody else here.
- ErrantX 17y agoThanks Jacques :) To add some more. Here in the UK such images would officially be graded using the Copine Scale[1]. BUt this is not a cut and dried thing; you could technically speaking rate the image as "level 1" (the lowest level) purely for being a nude shot. Family pictures of your kid in the bath, or a nudist holiday (for example) would fall into this categary - officially. What's crucial is context: which is why this is highly subjective. A family bath pic amongst a whole load of family pics is not something you would, clearly, get in trouble for. Amongst a set of other indecent images then yes. Because of the context of the image and the fact it is deleted (one hopes securely) after viewing I personally dont think it would be classed indecent. 1. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copine_scale http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copine_scale
- jacquesm 17y agoWhat a sad world we live in where something like the Copine scale has a reason to exist.
