Hello!
My question pertains to California law and images available on the internet, specifically web based usenet newsgroup browsers such as usenet binaries.com.
Can anyone tell me if I can be arrested for accidently seeing a thumbnail of an illegal image from one of these sites? Or accidently downloaded?( the spammers dont decribe the ACTUAL picture a lot of the times)
The website makes it very easy to pick a legal subject, yet spammers tend to drop every illegal and immoral picture ever taken in some of the most docile groups.
And what about illegal porno spam sent to my email address? If Im some how arrested and illegal spam is on my computer, will a jury really understand where the image came from?
Can someone tell me how a normal person can browse normal legal binary newsgroups without the fear of unknowingly contaminating their computer with unwanted illegal material?
