"it shouldn't matter if the material is sexual or just a lot of saved games of Minecraft"
With sexual stuff there could be lots of issues. Are any people in the images underage (for Canada even if they weren't where the photos were taken). Revenge porn, peephole photos, etc. There's a new law twice a day. Somebody new with no safety net might be worried about liability by just knowing about the photos. If it turned out that there was people in the images that were not of legal age of consent, could IT be held as complicit in the transfer if they knew that the photos were naughty? I'd hope that a court wouldn't drag them through the process, but it's best to be nowhere near the mud puddle so you don't get splashed. I left a company that played fast and loose with safety laws. As the listed safety officer, I didn't want to be anywhere near that place when something happened. I could point all I wanted at senior management and it might do me no good at all.
