It's not even that the public would perceive that image to be child porn. It
is
child porn. It's an image of a child created for the sole purpose of
producing
pleasurable sexual excitation in the viewer. Child + porn = child porn.
Process
isn't relevant when it comes to stuff like this. Whether we should host
child
porn on WMF servers is not something that is up for a vote.
