My wife uses a local mail client. So recently, I was helping her find an attachment. And I happened to browse the embedded images folder. She was very surprised ;)

Anyway, putting someone on a CP spam list, and then getting them busted, might well do it.

The courts have determined that having CP in your browser image history as thumbnails not even full sized images is the same as having seen the full sized images. So popping up a window with a hundred thumbnails is enough to provide evidence to send someone away for life.
