Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 OBS
child sexual abuse material; CSAM: The designation "child sexual abuse material" has been suggested to replace "child pornography" to avoid trivializing the sexual abuse and exploitation of children, as the word "pornography" generally refers to adults engaging in consensual sexual acts distributed legally to the general public. 7, record 1, English, - child%20sexual%20abuse%20material

Toute représentation, par quelque moyen que ce soit, d'un enfant s'adonnant à des activités sexuelles explicites, réelles ou simulées, ou toute représentation des organes sexuels d'un enfant, à des fins principalement sexuelles. 5, record 1, French, - mat%C3%A9riel%20de%20maltraitance%20sexuelle%20d%27enfants
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 OBS
matériel de maltraitance sexuelle d'enfants; MMSE : La désignation «matériel de maltraitance sexuelle d'enfants» est proposée pour remplacer «pornographie juvénile» afin de mieux refléter la nature criminelle de ce type de contenu. Puisque le mot «pornographie» renvoie généralement à des représentations d'actes sexuels consensuels entre adultes, légalement diffusées au grand public, son usage dans ce contexte peut banaliser ou occulter la réalité de la maltraitance sexuelle des enfants. 2, record 1, French, - mat%C3%A9riel%20de%20maltraitance%20sexuelle%20d%27enfants
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 2 OBS
matériel d'abus et d'exploitation pédosexuels : Bien que le terme «matériel d'abus et d'exploitation pédosexuels» soit critiqué, «abus» voulant dire «excès», le Code criminel emploie ce terme. 7, record 1, French, - mat%C3%A9riel%20de%20maltraitance%20sexuelle%20d%27enfants
