It comes back to distribution for me. If they are generating the stuff for themselves, gross, but I don't see how it can really be illegal. But if your distributing them, how do we know their not real? The amount of investigative resources that would need to be dumped into that, and the impact on those investigators mental health, I don't know. I really don't have an answer, I don't know how they make it illegal, but it really feels like distribution should be.
