Kendra, yup server logs will keep track of ip's, then the admin's just need to trace it and forward ip and the destination to the police, local for the server as well as local for the ip. if any criminality occured it happened on the site, the server location has legal jurisdiction. but, US law isn't very strong for internet crimes, unless you can prove e-theft, or similar. canadian law actually banned cgi porn images involving children and animals, or either, unlike the us law which was beaten. yes, complete electronic images, like a pser child used in such a manner can put you in prison in canada...federal prison. a site like this, thar doesn't allow porn images at all could actually have the law back them up if they were hosted in Canada. ~g~
