Yet another blow in the war on porn. Can we just accept that the parents need to be the ones to act as porn gatekeepers via acting as gatekeepers to the internet? Once the kid hits the internet, they're gonna find porn one way or another. Changes like these don't solve anything imho.

Does this have anything to do with children? I figured this was for advertising; major cooperations probably don't want their ads associated with porn.

Yea, it seems more about advertisers than censorship. They need to make money to host thing x and don't want their brand to be associated with thing y.

There is no war on porn and I don't think the imgur is trying to solve anything except for their liability and responsibility to sensitive material that needs to be curated and sectioned off from some users.

There is a war on porn in the UK and Australia to say the ones that I am aware of.
