> possession is illegal

AFAIK this is not an absolute, global truth. IANAL, but I do know the stance on CP (e.g. anime, ages of wedding, written-Lolita- etc differ per region. Legal and cultural).

In many countries, possession of certain books is illegal. Possession of blueprints of weapons is illegal and so on.

Point being: banning CP is still a moral choice, made by the operators of the site, not some absolute, global common baseline.
