"Does viewing files on the Internet constitute possession?" Tricky legal question. Any picture you see on your web browser is actually being viewed from your own hard drive. You don't know precisely where it is without making an effort, but it's there somewhere. So, technically, if a child porn image appears on your screen from an accidental surf to an unknown URL, that picture is sitting on your own hard drive. Is that possession? The courts have not decided.
