The issue is that this is CP in the first place. So if this is CP then there would be literally be instances of CP where it's "not bad" and just get a slap on the wrist. (of course it would still be on their record and makes them CP distributors on paper.)

I mean, do you legit want the teenager thrown in prison and treated like a predator over that?

Sounds like you're ignoring why CP is against the law in the first place. It's a form of child abuse. Who is actually being abused in this instance?

It's still bad. But for different reasons. It could fall in the hands of actual sexual predators or otherwise shared online (whether intentional or no).

If I was following the topic correctly (it might have been another user that said this), you mentioned you would rather have the flawed laws dealt with first ... which kind of implies it just wouldn't count as CP? That seems way way worse and open to abuse IMHO.
