Good point. If someone publishes a photo then they violate the child’s right to privacy and I agree that they should be punished. Doesn’t this mean that the crime is in the act of publishing? If they have the photo but don’t publish it then what have they done wrong? What about if the photo is a very realistic rendering of a child that doesn’t exist? (Or just a drawing, for which people have indeed been prosecuted in some parts of the world.) (The flip side is already covered in law: if the face is real but the scene is fake then it is still an invasion of privacy.)
