[Suggestion]Automatically detect and blur nudity in ads, reels, pictures,

I’d like to suggest implementing a smart AI restriction filter to automatically detect and blur nudity in ads, reels, pictures, or short videos unless explicitly permitted by the user. This would empower users to customize their browsing experience and avoid unwanted explicit content. Many platforms lack robust filters, making such a feature invaluable for privacy and comfort. Thank you for considering this improvement to enhance user control.
Platform & Environment:Device: Android/iOS/Desktop (any Chrome-supported OS).
Privacy Settings: Default or customized (no explicit content restrictions enabled).
Common Triggers:
Scroll through social media (Facebook/Instagram/X/TikTok) or video sites (YouTube) using Chrome.
Engage with non-explicit content (e.g., sports, memes, news).
Observe algorithmically suggested reels/shorts/ads (no user search history tied to adult content).
Ad-Driven Exposure:
Third-party ads (via Google AdSense or other networks) occasionally display unblurred nudity/partial nudity, even with "SafeSearch" enabled.
Ads bypass platform-level filters (e.g., Instagram’s "Sensitive Content Control" has no effect on ads in Chrome).
Lack of User Control:
Chrome’s native tools (Site Settings/SafeSearch) fail to filter nudity in embedded ads/short-form videos.
No option to preemptively blur or block such content without disabling JavaScript or ads entirely.
Problem Description:Unexpected nudity appears in ads, reels, and short videos while browsing social media (Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, YouTube, etc.) in Chrome—even with SafeSearch enabled and no prior adult-content browsing history. These explicit or suggestive images/videos often come from third-party ads or algorithmic recommendations, bypassing platform-level filters. Chrome currently lacks an AI-based content filter to proactively detect and blur nudity, leaving users with no control over unsolicited exposure.
This issue disrupts safe browsing, particularly in shared or public environments, and undermines user trust in Chrome’s content moderation. A built-in AI filter (toggleable in settings) could analyze and blur such content before rendering, aligning with user preferences.
