Steem Should Remove NSFW Post. Otherwise it can turn into porn site.

in #introduceyourself7 years ago

Guys I understand this is social media. We can share anything.

But there is a section called nsfw where naked pictures are posted. And in dtube also there is nude video. What is this.

Is it a social site or porn site?

People are getting videos from internet which is not their own content . They are sharing without any work and this posts are getting good upvotes.

I think its the high time to stop. I have joined today and saw nsfw. I did not understand first. It said reveal and found what bad picture.

We need to get rid of this.

I am sorry but I think admins should pay attention, its not good for healthy community.

What bad things can happen: Suppose a boy or girl came here and he wanted to post good content but nobody did not pay attention to him. Then he saw that people getting upvotes by nude posts which is copy paste.

So he or she may decide to do this. He won't give good posts as he just get upvoted by sharing just picture.

I will always say against of these activity. its unethical. Google adsense does not allow to show ads on nude content. No good ad company.

Steem is different so people are using it. The only thing that can help is to ban nsfw content.

Make steem beautiful with healthy post and no copy paste please.

I am not good at writing but I will try my best. I have already received support from you guys.

ya really don't wanna see that on here, supposted to be a good alternative to youtube not pornhub! i agree

I strongly support your right to post what you want, so long as it doesn't harm someone.

Therefore I cannot support your desire to prevent others from doing exactly the same thing.

There are many problems that porn, particularly, presents. Is it consensual? Is it plagiarism? Is it not viewable by minors? Are the images of adults? All these are problems that no other content presents. I am certain that there will be criminal posts that we will have to flag, as a result, and even worse consequences.

None of that changes the principle that I stand on: You, I, and everyone, has a right to post what they want, as long as they do not commit a crime while doing so.

I am sorry that some things in this world, and on Steemit, aren't exactly what you want. I am glad that the NSFW tag will protect you from having to be exposed to it.

Please let me know what else you think is necessary to protect your freedom to speak freely, and how you can tolerate the speech of others with whom you disagree.

Thanks!

3 of my last 5 Posts are exactly about this Issue.
Give them a read if you like.
They are an appeal to the whole Steemit community to stand together against the abuse of this great site by posting such content.
My first post about this was even downvoted by the very person who posted the nude pictures.
There was even one guy who took pictures of women on the street or subway to post them here, which is actually illegal, because they turn him on.
This is an offense to all women out there, to my Mother, to my sister, and all my female relatives, friends, colleagues, etc....
My appeal is simply this:
Everytime that you see a post like this, especially when it is not marked NSFW, use the Flag to downvote it.
If we can get enough Steemers together to do this they will have no chance!
At least in your settings you can filter out NSFW content.
But when they post stuff like this WITHOUT marking it NSFW, everytime you see it, please dont scroll away until you flag it.
This completely destroys any incentive for them of posting this.

You've got a HUGE POINT! Definitely agree on your statement. Enough free porn out there on the web so we do need it here.

Totally agree with you.

Well - that's the curse of the decentralized idea. There is no control, which means also no control over evil. I also flagged child pornography once. It was a really disturbing experience. But we are all responsible for what we do.
When a child has unlimited access to internet, it will get spammed with pornography. The web is full of it. Why should it be different here? There is good and there is bad - two sides of one medal.

I agree but spammers will take advantage here.

And racists will take advantage where they are noch censored too, when you start censoring where should you stop?
