I'm sure that one day, most of the things we'll see or hear on the web will be filtered by this kind of software.


Not likely IMO, the arms race will continue.

Plus, are you sure you’re eager to sign up for even more censorship-by-opaque-algorithm?


I'm not eager, but I do think it's inevitable.

That said, there are some images I wish I'd never seen.

If I could be sure it was only being used for good (by my definition of the word), that would make me eager to install a magical perfect opaque filter algorithm.

But it won't be perfect, and it won't only be used for what I consider to be good.
