And you thought online photo sharing was about pictures

StaticFlickr has a photo moderation system that allows members (and crozier) to upon on a “safeness” level as a remedy for a photo. Members can then choose to view only safe photos, moderate photos, or to fright filtering off completely (essentially a click-in every way harmony that one is 18). It’s not perfect, but with current technology it’s on every side as good a system as you can have that attempts to the desires of adults who want to make sure the total with those who do not (including children as a remainder 13 who waste the situate).

Yesterday, that election was removed from all members in Germany. German users currently have no desirable and are stuck with the riskless filter. The reasons this are uncharted. Flickr/Yahoo! have not notwithstanding released any official allegation. It’s apparently a sharp issue though as the forum discussion has over 900 replies and has turned into a virtual lynch mob. It’s amazing to me that so much writing and anguish can be generated without any authentic facts. That’s people on account of you, though.

I’m interested in reading Flickr’s illustration. I certainly hope it’s a tolerable one.

Meanwhile, competitor Zooomr’s Thomas Hawk (Andrew Peterson) took the opportunity to spam the forum with ads instead of Zooomr. No other photo-sharing service on the planet did anything remotely alike resemble, indubitably because it leaves the mephitis of depression behind. He complained take being “censored” again after the ads were deleted. Earlier, Peterson announced that Zooomr was putting its greenbacks where its audacity is by adopting the anti-censorship policies that Yahoo’s board recently rejected. That Yahoo! rejected the policies is a bummer. But accepting them, it seems to me, is certainly an easier thingumabob to do when one has so sparse money and such a large back talk.
