	Congress's own actions tend to undercut the market thesis. In 1978, 18 U.S.C. § 2252 became law as part of the [[Protection of Children Against Sexual Exploitation Act of 1977]]. As enacted in 1978, § 2252 was much narrower in scope than it is today because Congress's original intent was to thwart the widespread commercialization of child pornography. The earliest version of § 2252 punished those transporting, shipping, distributing, or receiving child pornography in interstate or foreign commerce for the purpose of sale. However, it soon became apparent that the original legislation was too limited in scope because non-commercial trafficking of child pornography was also pervasive. To rectify this problem, Congress passed the [[Child Protection Act of 1984]] which amended § 2252 and made non-commercial trafficking a federal crime.<ref>https://lawreview.law.miami.edu/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/v65_i3_sbacon.pdf</ref>		Congress's own actions tend to undercut the market thesis.

			With the proliferation of peer-to-peer (P2P) file-sharing sites, the commercial market for child pornography dramatically contracted. As a result, the typical defendant today has probably been apprehended because of his involvement in a P2P file sharing network or an Internet forum, such as a bulletin board, newsgroup, or chat room.<ref>https://ir.law.fsu.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=2593&context=lr</ref>
