Revision as of 07:25, 26 March 2009

Can someone who was at this meeting elaborate on this?

Sexually explicit likely the largest piece - not talking about private, talking about what is publicly advertised to public; another category intensely violent activity, not simple shooting more like beheadings and torture; third category actual photographs nudity, pornography
  • What is "publicly advertised"? Search terms? Signs? Links?
  • Actual photographs OK or not OK in "non-public" builds?
