| Filming sexual intercourse for payment between individuals is not an illegitimate activity as long as the acts being engaged in would otherwise be legitimate if no videotaping were to occur, as this would be a restriction of free speech. Not videotaping but still paying is an illegitimate activity as this would qualify as a form of prostitution. Pornographic film production legal in New Hampshire. | |
