So who is the arbiter of what is pornography and what is not pornography?

Maybe the FR church lady contingent can weigh in on which government agency will be tasked with that determination ...

Wasn’t there a court case at one time on porn, in which the judge said he knows it when he sees it?? And that discussion came up because of the difficulty in giving a precise definition of this subject. Is the display of a woman’s breast always pornographic? What if it is part of a discussion of health matters such as breast cancer?

If I recall correctly from court cases on obscenity decades ago, these are exactly the types of issues which came up in trying to define what is obscene.
