"Just a few months ago, as part of our ongoing "content moderation at
scale is impossible" series, we wrote about how Facebook has spent over
a decade now struggling with how to deal with naked female breasts.
There are a lot more details in that post, but it initially had a "no
nudity" policy, but that got difficult when someone would post famous
artwork or breastfeeding mothers. Facebook's policy keeps trying to
change to adapt, but no matter what it does it keeps running into more
and more edge cases."
