>Criminalization of images and videos isn't about protecting the children, it's about control. Other laws criminalize acts; these laws simply require being in a certain situation (e.g. having stuff planted on you) and not knowing about being in that situation is not a valid legal defense. Basically, you are committing a felony when police searching your home decide you're committing a felony by finding the USB stick they brought.
That's just an argument to decriminalize posession. It still doesnt address downloading or distribution.
And its not about control either. Most people who possess CP are never prosecuted.
