A sign of how times have changed from the crazy world of puritanism (when oral intercourse could be considered illegal) - you assume it is the clip that is legal. They're talking about the oral sex when they're referring to legality.

It is, of course, obvious that distributing a video of a legal act can be illegal. For instance, there's the obvious thing that a 14 year old is legally allowed to masturbate. They are not then allowed to video themselves masturbating and then distribute the video.

Does a 14 year old truly understand the gravity of the acts of filming and distribution here? I would argue against, and for that reason I find it hard to understand how courts could agree to the punishment when the agent of the crime is so obviously incompetent.
