You'd have to admit it. But if you have it on your hard drive, a hacker could get it and blackmail you with it, or just distribute it.

There are lots of sick fucks that will distribute it themselves and even send it to their victims to harass them directly. It's already happening.

I don't think it's possible to ban it outright, and I think what people do on their own computer is their own business so long as they aren't connecting to other computers, but we should have strong laws against distributing it and treat it the same as distributing secretly taken real nudes against someone's will. Victims need recourse against harassment.
