How about a picture of a woman's breasts? What about an erect penis? Sounds like porn, but you might also see these things in the context of health-related pictures or some other educational material.
The classic problem of trying to filter pornography is trying to separate it from information about human bodies. I suspect that doing this with images will be even harder than doing it with text.
- Zimahl 13y agoDefinitely true. Facebook had a dust-up when a woman posted a topless photo of herself after she had had a double mastectomy. That said, not all sites are like Facebook and we aren't talking about filtering all the images on the internet, just ones on specific sites. One example I can think of is that a forum for a sports team might not want NSFW pictures posted as it would be irrelevant.
