It does not forbid the use of such images in reports to law enforcement, the courts, corrections officers, intelligence services or in other cases of (unspecified) public interest (e.g. I suppose reports of a public health problem). Definition of "sexually explicit" is inherited from existing laws. "Reckless" will be interpreted by prosecutors it seems. Interactive computer platform providers (e.g. WMF or Facebook) are not considered violators of the law only because a user uploaded something, unless the platform explicitly invites such content.
