That is correct, however legislation is quite exact with these terms.

Hm, what about stealing some database with personal names and making it
public?

In Slovenia we had a case, when someone published our former (communist)
secret service dossiers on almost everybody in our country (more than
80% population). That was illegal and banned, and is stil illegal, even
it was already published.

An in some (many, actually) coutries possessing (not "just"
distributing) child porn is illegal.
