Beware: you run risk of inadvertently downloading or distributing child sexual abuse material (CSAM).

A friend was talking about how their US friend got given a sex offence label due to downloading a zip of porn that unknown to them contained some CSAM. Lost their job and worse.

You didn't know is no defence in some jurisdictions. You personally can't check images or image collections for legality, so the risk is real.

Well, opening a website can save in the browser cache any image which is not displayed on the website. What all these silly mobile apps and games exactly are downloading and uploading? Who knows....

Progress: jail for everyone. Certainly modern life has dangerous tripwires. I just had to google the words for the acronym CSAM - and as a non-citizen it made me double-think about surveillance.

Maybe add a couple more paras to your comment?

  If you give me six sentences written by the most innocent of men, I will find something in them with which to hang them.
