QuoteIf you did it accidentally, there was no crime.

I know some people that had this same issue and divulged it to their background examiner with NO issues.

On the polygraph they usually structure the question like:
"Have you ever knowingly accessed, possessed, or manufactured any ch**d p*rnography".


How does one "accidentally" view child porn? ;D

Be prepared to explain yourself though...they want to make sure that you are not going online and trying to access this stuff.

This thread reminds of another post I came across a couple of days ago on a different board: http://clearancejobsblog.com/securityclearancejobs/topic/viewing-and-searching-for-content-during-middle-school/ I can see in that example with how a polygrapher would take something innocent like that out of context as someone already alluded to in this thread. The answer in this case should be a definitive no as well. The candor suggestion is somewhat naive when the there's an incentive for the polygrapher to disqualify and add another innocent casualty to his quota.

Quote from: NotWorriedExceptForThis on Mar 22, 2013, 07:17 PMSo let me get this out of the way. I have never intentionally viewed or downloaded child porn. However, there was two or three times I was browsing a forum such as 4chan and saw child porn posted. In all instances, I reported it to the moderators. When I was a teenager, there were occasions where I viewed images and videos where it wasn't certain if the girl was over 18 or not. I never saved anything onto my computer.

I probably won't be applying to the CIA or the NSA until two years from now, but I'm not too nervous about the polygraph. This is the main thing which has me worried because apparently it's fairly common that applicants will be asked during polygraphs if they ever saw anything on the internet that made them uncomfortable, and when they respond "yes", it gets flagged as child porn, regardless as to whether or not it was intentional.

So my question is, if this question comes up during my polygraph, what on Earth should I say? Because it wasn't intentional, I should say "No" and make no admissions right? I'm worried that I'll end up like the NSA applicant in the NSA Polygraph Statement of "Frustrated".

Precisely. Do not admit to having ever viewed underage pornography. Ever. No good will come of it. Any who doubt this should read the NSA Polygraph Statement of "Frustrated":

Obviously you've never heard of 4chan.

4chan is basically an anonymous image board that is essentially a huge part of online culture (though I'd say more for the younger generations). Google or wikipedia it...

That said, it isn't at all uncommon for anonymous posters/trolls/pervs to randomly post images of child pornography that you can't help but see if you're browsing the site. It's completely against the rules and the moderators get rid of it when they can, but it pops up.. and it's not at all "encrypted"...

Seriously, unless you're just a basic email and a few websites kind of guy.. running into child porn accidentally is completely plausible and happens all the time.

Child porn isn't usually sent unsolicited through the mails! :-[

Four or five years ago I was sent what I immediately recognized as child porn. I called the local FBI office and got their email address to which I forwarded the porn unopened. I have not been bothered by these perverted idiots since. If everyone did this, I think we would see a great decrease in this unsolicited crap.

The correct answer to any question about having ever viewed underage porn is no.
