With that kind of thinking you could win the war on drugs. Wait, no, you can’t. Economics matters to adults. Children value and act on their emotions over reality. Children will never win a war against the economic realities they unknowingly make. Your solution is to get more caveman. Get more caveman and lose more. And actually, we all lose. There will be more CP produced because you don’t want to think. You want to act on emotions.
There was no commercially viable production of CP until we made it illegal. It practically didn’t exist until one guy did it, and put it on a 90s style file share. And everyone hated it. And that one singular film would have been moderated off of every place on the internet we don’t want it, which is 99.9% of places. It would have been a one off. But in response to a single film we added a reactive policy. Then there was commercial production of CP. Now if we were to legalize it, it would be everywhere because of all of the content that was produced because of our policy can’t be uncreated.
It was already illegal to do the physical acts in the film. Prior to the policy no one would be stupid enough to film their crime and publish it without an economic incentive. But now the incentive exists because D = CV*min(1,FR/FV)-CR. Each of those letter pairings is a distribution. Respectively, perceived value of commercially available media, perceived risk of accessing freely available media, perceived value of freely available media, and perceived risk of accessing commercially available media. Because the resulting distribution of min(1,FR/FV) is uniformly zero when you don’t criminalize unpatronized exchange, there is no market until you do that. Copyrighted media uses the same formula, but there CR is zero. FYI, a distribution minus a distribution always has a positive component. So no amout of raising CR will solve the problem. That’s why you can’t win the war on drugs. There it is just D=CV-CR. The min(1,FR/FV) term is called the window of coordination and applies to media exchanges. It sets how much a media exchange behaves like a commodity. Since drugs are a commodity that term is just 1.
There is no where in the formula to encode if the production was harmful to someone, or if it offends you, or isn’t eligible for copyright status, or what the intention of the law was. Because economic laws work the same way if you are offended or not.
You are an adult, and you are trying to protect children. So be an adult and do what children can’t do. Think critically. We have responsibilities as adults to do that. Or we are children ourselves.
