La pornografia minorile nella sfera privata e il reato di pedopornografia virtuale. Considerazioni critiche alla luce di Cass. Pen., Sez. III, Sent. N. 22265/2017
This essay focuses on pedopornography, mainly on the s.c. virtual pedopornography, after the sentence of the Italian Court of Cassation n. 22265/2017.
