Having an online video streaming of a suicide is kinna like a snuff film? Just asking, 'cuz I don't know--meaning, I need the GC lawyers to let me know.

Because watching a snuff film--isn't that illegal?

ETA: Answered my own question... This was a suicide not a murder and people watched it and no one who watched it felt compelled to stop it, if there was a way. But it is not a "snuff film" based on the current definition. But it could easily be classified as one along with the language we find in kiddie porn and abuse...
