At the moment under the current wording, such a situation could arise.
This, on the other hand... is obviously not our intent, but we concede that the wording can definitely be interpreted that way. We'll make a change shortly.
OOC: That is exactly the sort of situation I've been spelling out all along, and now you don't argue against it?
IC:
The state of CGI is such that one can produce realistic-looking media using, for example, the facial features of a real child.
...so facial features of a child on an otherwise completely adult body would be enough for the child porn warning to trigger? Or is that not what you're saying? [OOC: Think of anime-type bodyplan, but made with CGI to look real.]
Case 1: A nudist family takes a video of a kid's birthday party, and adds it to their collection of home videos. This recording, obviously, is "not intended to be used for sexual purposes", and would be legal, even if some pervert finds this collection and uses it for sexual purposes
Again, NOT what has been said before here. Unless suddenly it's not considered possession to have a recording that's clearly, for the person owning the recording, "for sexual purposes"? Colour me confused.
Are there shades of gray in between?
According to proposal text, no. Law does what it says, and this one doesn't allow for the grey middle ground, as you and others have repeated ad infinitum.
