I used the term 'unlawful material' in a deliberate attempt to avoid
using terminology that is pretty distasteful to a great number of people
(hence the reason it is unlawful). I certainly don't use it as a
euphemism for anything the police or other instrument of officialdom
might consider to be subversive (which is what I think you were
inferring). If you want to know the kind of thing I mean, then the
principle piece of legislation in England and Wales is Section 1 of The
Protection of Children Act 1978
(http://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/1978/37 ) although there are other
bits of legislation in a similar vein.

Usually when people see for the first time, the kind of thing I have to
look at on a daily basis, it makes them feel sick.
