Barron, actually, I think you got it, very close. Actually, a performer who makes content is the primary producer. The person who puts it on the website (publishes the material) is the secondary producer. The primary and secondary producers can be the same people. There is nothing stopping them from also being a performer - but that does not exempt them from record keeping.
The goverment wants to be able to say "this URL, this picture... who is it, how old are they, do you have proof" no matter who is in the picture and who took the image.
