What is viewed varies from one person to another, from culture to culture
The term ‘pornography’ can be sexually explicit material designed primarily to produce arousal
Pornographic material involved consenting adults is legal in Canada if it is not deemed to be obscene
It is against the law to save intimate images of a person under the age of 18 years old (child pornography) on a computer, phone, cloud storage or any other device
If someone shared the intimate image of a child/ren they are committing the offense of ‘distribution’
Once an intimate digital image is created it is almost impossible to control what happens with that image and it will always exist
In almost all cases the convicted person’s name appears on the federal sex registry
