Whether surreptitiously recorded videos and images of minors in a bathroom depict those minors engaging in "sexually explicit conduct"—namely, the "lascivious exhibition" of genitals—when the recordings depict nudity but do not show the minor (or anyone else) engaging in sexual or sexually suggestive activity of any kind.
Question Presented (AI Summary)
