“The adult content includes mainly photos, videos or GIF s that show real human genitalia, nipples of woman and any content (including photos, GIF s and illustrations) that demonstrate sexual acts”.

What will happen to the one that is labeled as an adult? It will go into private mode so that only the owner of the content can visualize it .

This will be done automatically and also manually: users will be able to report the porn through this option, that of reporting.
