I wonder if websites that show exclusively CGI generated underage porn will be illegal or not. Seems like if it isn't hurting anyone then who cares.

  In the US it's illegal, as per a comment directly under the submission.

    I think the first comment says you have to purposefully be trying to break the law. If you went into a situation where you knew what you were seeing was a bot and not a person then I don't think that would count as attempting to break any laws. Or am I misreading that?

      "In the United States, the PROTECT Act of 2003 made significant changes to the law regarding virtual child pornography. Any realistic appearing computer generated depiction that is indistinguishable from a depiction of an actual minor in sexual situations or engaging in sexual acts is illegal under 18 U.S.C. § 2252A." That's the part I'm talking about.

        Gotcha, yea pretty cut and dry. I don't agree with that law but that's another issue I guess.
