Google to blur explicit images in search results by default

In an announcement today, Google says that it will soon enable a new SafeSearch blurring setting by default for all users. The filter will protect users from encountering explicit imagery after searching on the engine. Released to mark Safer Internet Day, Google is aiming to make the internet secure for users with a filter that is designed to blur sexually explicit content like pornography, violence, and gore. Users, however, can choose to turn the filter off in settings at their own wish. The filter was already turned on previously, for users under the age of 18. The filter will blur content in search results but will also provide the option to view the image by clicking on the button, after ignoring the warning. The popular search engine company has noted that the automated system blurring explicit content might not be 100% accurate. Just last year, Google announced that it would use AI to improve its automated systems in removing unwanted explicit or suggestive content from Search results, especially when users weren't searching for it. Its recently released Bert technology might help the company in achieving its goal better. Filter your search results in Google Settings here.
