If a user isn't responsible for his computer, who is? If you think we shouldn't hold them responsible, go ahead and lay out what you think a better enforcement mechanism should be. I'm willing to argue that we can't legally be less stringent than we are now if we expect to effectively ban CP.
Look folks, CP enforcement is the one thing that clashes with what most of the Internet wants the law to be regarding it. Instead of permitting anonymity and freedom, anything involving CP is locked down in a fashion that is quite severe. That could very well conflict with your sensibilities, but arguing for the same standard of enforcement for CP as other Internet crimes has consequences, as I'm trying to point out.
If you're okay with the consequence: that CP will become as accessible as any other pornography or copyrighted media, then you are tacitly approving of its use, production, and dissemination.
