Very early.

There was an incident several years ago, I think when she was 17, where some oil trucker created a salacious silhouette of her. You know how some truckers drive around with these? You know how truckers are known for occasionally having explicit decals because they are typically blue-collar, male, boomers, who prize having an attitude?

Well, someone in the oil industry made this.

And when that happened, all hell broke loose. For a week or so, the media started screaming at the top of their heads that this product depicted child rape and started screaming for criminal charges. Reddit agreed. People were getting yeeted for posting that pick on Reddit for "sexualizing minors".

Even under very strict scrutiny that image is barely NSFW. It's PG-13 level stuff. Salacious, sure. But the figure doesn't even have a face, she was 17 at the time, and this is merely an inexplicit artistic satire. There's a lot of hentai, lolicon, and furry art on Reddit that's much more seriously questionable than that. But, because it was the Goddess Greta, the Jannysaries went fucking ballistic.
