Did you know it can be illegal just to look at something on the Internet , depending on what it is? Federal and Texas laws against child porn are severe and can lead to many years in prison. Even a search for child porn on the Web could get you arrested and charged with a crime. Nor is it a crime to view Internet porn featuring consenting adults, which has become one of the largest forms of online adult entertainment. But make no mistake, if you actively search for child porn online, you could be arrested. Today, public outrage, vigorous law officers, tough prosecutors, and severe laws can mean you face a difficult legal battle to remain free from prison.
