Internet Case Surfing Rights

CR06002213-12

This case is about a man that was charged with possession of child pornography. The interesting part of this case is that these pictures where simply thumbnails in his temporary cache. They did not reside anywhere else on his computer and they were grouped with hundreds of other pictures that were normal adult material. The reason why this is so important is that any computer user could be charged and convicted with having material that is simply in their internet cache. Further they may not even know that the information or pictures are there and still be found guilty.

Well that's just bloody stupid (both the law and the idiot who managed to get himself caught like that).
