You could be accused of receiving kiddie porn. The law in the US,
AS ENFORCED, does not consider whether you actually solicited it
or not. OTOH, it's not enforced very much. CLEOs tend to spend
more time at Congressional hearings asking to have cushier jobs.
One wonders why they bust a big international trading ring, but
the flow on USENET continues.
