I don’t quite get it, is it a wider term than child pornography or more narrow (e.g. excludes some types of materials that could be considered porn but strictly speaking doesn’t depict abuse)? The abbreviation sounds like some kind of exotic Surface to Air Missile lol
“Child pornography” is a term NGO’s and Law enforcement are trying to get phased out. It makes it sound like CSAM is related to porn, when in fact it is simply abuse of a minor.
Child sexual abuse material.
Is it just me or did anyone else know what “CSAM” was already?
I had no idea what the acronym was. Guess I’m just sheltered or something.
Yeah it’s pretty common, unfortunately

It does.
Somehow acronyms just end up sounding cool. Guess we should just use the full form. That would be better.
