It's also easy to lose your livelihood or even life if you fail to eject something from your company's possession after you have reason to believe it contains certain materials of abuse. Federal and state prosecutor opinions differ, so clearance from local or state LEO (as done here) basically means dick. If you're wrong, then you get thrown in prison where you hear stories of "chomos" getting raped and shanked. If google is right, maybe they get a little bit of advertisement money. Imagine if this father did something later and the prosecutor uses this happening as evidence that this content was 'knowingly' harbored by the company. Seems like a bad calculus to me, just cut the guy loose whether he is innocent or not. You don't have the same rights to private service as you do rights in public.
