Child sexual abuse material - underage porn. For obvious reasons, you don't want this to be something you're hosting automatically out of your basement server.
That's what I thought. Back in my days it was called CP.
I’ve been listing to the audiobook for American Prometheus: The Triumph and Tragedy of J. Robert Oppenheimer and the number of times they say “CP” as an abbreviation for “Communist Party” is too damn high.
Also last time I went to the amusement park Cedar Point they’ve got “CP” as an abbreviation on all sorts of stuff.
Made me chuckle, but I do think it’s perhaps time to move to the abbreviation CSAM since it’s less likely to get used for other purposes.
Youtube literally flat banned any channel with CP in it. Regardless of what CP actually stood for, like say combat power in pokemon go..... Lots of bigger YouTubers got hit with account closures for like a week before it got reversed.

Csam is an objectively better name.
'Porn' implies consent.
In what world anyone would think that CP implies consent? I mean, the word 'child' is right there. Do you think that the term 'child soldiers' implies consent? I don't have anything against the term CSAM but if it was created because of doubts around consent it was a silly reason to create it.
The term originates from professionals - psychiatrists etc - who work in that field, because they knew even decades ago that "pron" is the wrong word for this kind of material.
I think it's more likely some people working in those fields wanted to improve their career by popularizing a new term.
I think it has less to do with the existence of non-consensual porn as with the possibility and, indeed, existence of vast amounts of consensual porn. Consent is very much possible in adult porn, it isn't with CSAM. It's also possible with soldiers, though of course conscription exists and ask a random Ukrainian they'd rather not have to be a soldier for their loved ones to be protected.
There's a lot of porn that wasn't made consensually either. I don't care what we refer to csam as but I think it's important to acknowledge that.
