    Fun fact it’s already illegal. If it’s indistinguishable from the real thing it’s a crime.

      I was under the impression that even clearly drawn it’s already illegal, though it’s a grey area since they can say “lol it’s a 1000 year old demon that just looks like a child.” Is that not the case?

        Clearly drawn is hard to prosecute (and one might argue shouldn’t be prosecuted, since obscenity laws are just… weird). However, the stuff that is photorealistic can be treated, legally, like the real thing.
