There are bluenoses everywhere. Naked chile photos are a tradition that
goes back to the Victorian era. The extreme politically correct and the
the over the top religious of a number of religions will find the naked
photos objectionable, and in some jurisdictions prosecutable. The
photos of the little girl are not pornographic, but they aren't anything
I'd show. They look more like snapshots designed to embarrass her in
front of future dates.

Wyatt Neumann is a photographer and a father. In 2014 he took his
two-year-old daughter Stella on a cross-country road trip,
photographing their journey along the way. Neumann captured sunsets
and cornfields and, of course, Stella, often donning one of most
two-year-old girls' two favorite ensembles: a princess dress and
nothing at all.
In the middle of the trip, what the Safari Gallery describes as "a
hyper puritanical, neo-conservative group" launched a cyber-attack on
Neumann's images, specifically those of Stella. Calling the images
"perverse," "sick" and "pornographic," members of the group attempted
to remove all traces of them from the web. They successfully prompted
Facebook and Instagram to shut down his accounts, and they criticized
his artist website as well. While Neumann claims he was open to others
expressing their opinions about his work, the "forced censorship" went
too far.
And so on. Text and some pictures at:
