History Headscratchers / BlackMirrorShutUpAndDance

*** But the headscratcher isn't "why would Kenny go to prison", it's "How does a webcam video show what Kenny was looking at?" And the answer is it can't, and either the writers didn't realize that, or Kenny's character didn't, which still sort of works either way because it's plausible that a person in Kenny's place would be too scared to think things through. But in the end, the only crime they realistically have on him is the bank robbery, the killing was unambiguously in self defense, as he tried to flee and got literally dragged into it by the other guy.

*** Which is why the hackers set him up for robbery and murder too. That "evidence" you're talking about may not be admissible if the charge is possession of child pornography, because it can't be proven that the malware ''didn't'' copy it onto his hard drive, but it's absolutely admissible if that evidence is only used to establish motive. The issue of how the child porn got onto his computer doesn't matter. What matters is that it was there, Kenny knew it was there, and Kenny was willing to steal and kill to keep anyone else from finding out. If his prosecutor is smart, he won't bother charging him with possession of child porn at all. He's absolutely going to prison for this, the kindest thing any justice system can give him is locking him up without putting a CHOMO stamp on his forehead.

*** Every person ever accused of downloading child porn has either been caught in the act by police or had their hard drives confiscated before they had a chance to delete the evidence. In this instance neither of those is true, no one confiscated his hard drive, and the "evidence" against him has been produced by an unreliable source, thus making it inadmissible.

** Older adolescents (16+) can be considered paedophiles as well. It is mainly about how old the subject of their sexual desires is; according to Wiki/TheOtherWiki, someone 16 or 17 can be classed as a paedophile if they demonstrate sexual attraction to someone five years younger than them or younger (so, about 11-12). One assumes that the people in the photos and videos found on Kenny's computer were younger than 13.

*** The definition of young adult is literally 'a person in their teens or early twenties.' And, again, Kenny is implied to be jerking off to around the age of eight. It doesn't matter that seventeen-year-olds are legally still children. Socially and biologically, they are old enough that if they are sexually attracted to prepubescent children, they are 100% a pedophile.

** She might have just been walking towards her destination and happened to come across the gas station. This was a gas station in the middle of the village, not a highway gas station.
* Why has no one mentioned that Kenny failed to password protect his computer? If he's just used a password, his sister wouldn't've even gotten THAT far to begin with.

*** Every person ever accused of downloading child porn has probably said this, and yet people still get convicted. Besides, even if he's found innocent, his life is still pretty much ruined.

* Why did that woman need a ride from the gas station? How did she even get to the gas station to get gas in the first place without a car?

** Well, it would be pedophilia when you consider the people in the pics he jerked off to may be as young as ''eight years old'', if we go by the age of the little girl at the start. And seriously, in what world would a young man jerking off to pics of kids be considered not pedophilia?

* If Kenny has taken driving lessons but not his test, he is probably 17 or 18, which is barely old enough to be able to qualify as pedophilia at all. This is probably done deliberately to give viewers the fridge moment that a lot of it really was for nothing, but Kenny could -- should -- have realised this, too.
