If I recall the story plot points correctly, you should probably have a Not Safe For Work tag on it. (content warnings: sexual assault, murder-suicide, torture)

- upwardbound 5y agogood idea and you're correct. Will do
- capableweb 5y agoHow can text be NSFW? No one except you would know the actual context and longer story but you, so unless there are words like "PENIS INTO VAGINA" with big letters, I don't see how any plaintext can be NSFW.
- bombcar 5y agoWork filters may trigger on phrases, so it's not like someone would see it walking by, but it might be flagged for review. If the page flagged is some thread on HN nobody cares, but maybe if it isn't ... But in reality it's just a common short-hand content warning, similar to [PDF] right before a URL that ends in .pdf.
- mwid 5y agoHow could company filters trigger on phrases within a webpage if TLS is used? Would they have to bug the browser itself somehow instead?
- DenseComet 5y agoInstall a private CA and just decrypt TLS.
- gpanders 5y agoMany companies use proxies that do SSL interception.
- bombcar 5y agoExactly, this is how they do stuff like detecting data exfiltration (though that can also be done by traffic flow analysis also).

- tasha0663 5y agoNot quite as succinct as you put it. Falls into the category of "automated tools probably wouldn't notice it, but don't leave it open for sensitive colleagues to see" back when colocating was a thing. > When AM had altered Benny, during the machine's utterly irrational, hysterical phase, it was not merely Benny's face the computer had made like a giant ape's. He was big in the privates; she loved that! She serviced us, as a matter of course, but she loved it from him. Oh Ellen, pedestal Ellen, pristine-pure Ellen; oh Ellen the clean! Scum filth.
- dash2 5y agoIt’s a misconception by the way that apes have large penises. They’re actually quite small. Chimps do have big balls though.

- bocytron 5y agoI am happy there is a warning, as I get easily disturbed by that kind of content, having some kind of flag is a plus in my opinion.
- Cthulhu_ 5y agoNSFW is used as a blanket warning for anything that may be offensive, triggering, haunting or traumatizing, not necessarily work. NSFL is also often used (not safe for life). Basically anything that people could go "I wish I hadn't read / seen that" at. Another one to use is CW, for content warning, followed by what it contains. But I'm sure you know all of that. The warning is not for you personally, you may disregard it.
- Dah00n 5y agoI thought I used the internet a lot but I must be wrong if this definition is correct. I have never seen NSFW used outside of telling it is not safe for WORK. Text is always safe for work - well unless you live in a dystopia of course but then I'd think you have bigger problems than links on HN - and anything else I see marked with NSFL or a trigger warning.
