There was a 15 years old Boy for two or three years in Iran and he
was hanged-up because he was searchin for a program, downloaded it
and it was containing a Dialer which had downloaded Erotic pics...

On 26.7.2004 there was a 16 years girls hanged-up because she was
violated and the man had told the justice, she was his girlfriend. 

Minimal punishment for him and death for her.

I was already on time 17 and another time 3 month in prison...
...for nothing ! I do not like to continue this in Iran.

This is a technical and licence issue...

Cryptographical Software is one thing erotic/pronography another.

Right, if the upstream of "hot-babe" create a private repository
or find some others to create a collection in a seperatly
debian-repository, it would be the best.

Distributing of erotic as real or cartoon in Debian can make problems.

You was never in a persian (Iran, Tadshikistan, Afghanistan) or
arabian country... So you do not know whhats going on there.

You do not know the risk.
