>The Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights' Committee for the Rights of the Child is currently calling for comments on a new draft for "Guidelines on the implementation of the Optional Protocol to the Convention on the Rights of the Child on the sale of children, child prostitution and child pornography."
>The guidelines refer to both the "Convention on the Rights of the Child" (CRC) treaty adopted in 1989 and the "Optional Protocol on the sale of children, child prostitution and child pornography" (OPSC) treaty adopted under the CRC in 2000.
>Under article 2 of the original OPSC document, child pornography is defined as "any representation, by whatever means, of a child engaged in real or simulated explicit sexual activities or any representation of the sexual parts of a child for primarily sexual purposes." The new guidelines specify that the phrase "by whatever means" in this definition reflects "a broad range of material" including "visual material such as photographs, movies, drawings and cartoons; audio representations; any digital media representation; live performances; written materials in print or online; and physical objects such as sculptures, toys, or ornaments."
>On this point, the Committee refers readers to the "Luxenbourg Guidelines" or the "Terminology Guidelines for the Protection of Children from Sexual Exploitation and Sexual Abuse," which "is an initiative by 18 international partners to harmonise terms and definitions related to child protection." The Luxenbourg Guidelines give the same examples for the range of materials in the definition of child pornography, adding, "There remain significant variations in the national laws of States Parties to the OPSC with regard to the kinds of representations included in the criminalisation of 'child pornography'."

Why do these idiots want to lump harmless otaku and artists with actual child abusers? All this will ever do is maybe wipe some porn source off the internet. If it ever passes, that is.
There's shitton of case where UN officials is involved in child trafficking and child abuse.

The US hasn't even ratified the declaration of the rights of children, the UN is being pretty ambitious trying to get countries to care about the rights of cartoon characters.
There was already a case in the US years ago where some mentally ill woman wrote a bunch of nasty child rape stories and ended up getting bullied by the FBI into giving up her computer. No one cared back then, and no one is going to care when things get worse.
