How to fix it
Cut every frame of an unclothed child and anything that sexualizes a minor. These can lead to account disabling and reports to NCMEC.
Good to know
Watch for any unclothed child, including family videos. Also watch for adults commenting sexually on children, or kids in suggestive dances or poses. Exception: non-sexual child nudity in real-world art, or non-real imagery for health purposes.
