Questão jurídica principal
Whether downloading and electronically saving hard pornography for private use constitutes 'making' under Art. 197 no. 3 SCC.
Decisão extraída
Yes. Targeted electronic copying and storage of existing pornographic files on a computer or other data carrier is making within Art. 197 no. 3 SCC, regardless of the purpose of private use.
Fundamentação extraída
The method of copying is irrelevant; what matters is reproduction and the resulting copy on a data carrier. Internet download is technically no different from copying between two storage media. The later addition of Art. 197 no. 3bis SCC did not narrow no. 3 or make downloading only possession.
