My daughter was talking with a friend over iMessage. They were like playing a game where they search all emojis with a certain color. When she tried to send the message in this picture, the iPhone rejected, with the alert saying she was sending a nude. There’s nothing there, only emojis. What could’ve triggered the warning?

    Slight tangent: Would blocking still work if they tried to send nudes via Snapchat?

    I’m not “asking for a friend,” I’m just curious how effective this feature could possibly be.

    I bet there is programms out there, that can convert pictures into rows of emojis, just like with ascii-art. Maybe thats what they’re trying to guard against 🤷‍♂️

      The phone protect kids from sending nudes. (AFAIK it happens on the phone, not on a server). The phone has a series of protections for kids. She can’t message someone I don’t approve, no message or call from people not on the contact list can enter. But still, someone could grab her friend’s phone and ask for nudes. In this particular case, I entered my parent code and the message was sent. I fail to see how this is bad.

        That entire context was missing in your post: you have parental controls activated aka you opted into scanning.

        The post was presented as if your daughter just had a normal iPhone + not everybody uses an iPhone. You can’t expect people to know that the feature exists + that it’s activated on your daughters phone. I read daughter and thought she was an adult.

    Iphones may refuse to send “inappropriate” messages? Fuck that.

    The problem is that you can’t detect such things accurately and that some clowns still want to force it on everyone.

      It’s a feature that parents can toggle on to help prevent their kids from sending CSAM, and receiving unwanted dick pics. The choice of censorship is entirely on the parent.

      The emojis are a little far tho…

    Probably the fact that it contains the ‘tie the knot’ emoji and the ‘squirt’ emoji…

    Edit: Those spotted in the last 3 rows, if it helps locate them.

        It all depends on how one interprets ‘tie the knot’, and I have no idea how Apple’s software interprets it…

          You could say that about anything. That you called out that emoji suggests you know of some particular interpretation of it that relates to nudity. Care to share?

            I am not here to teach people about how K9 reproduction works. I posted enough with those 3 emojis.

            If you don’t already know, then you don’t need to know.

    Is it those images where you unfocus your eyes and it appears lol. Could be the image hash happens to be a match to a nude hash??

    I don’t know, but start shaving off emojis to see when it’ll accept it and you might get some hints.
