Google will start blurring explicit images by default on Google Search for those who don’t already have the SafeSearch filter on.
The purpose is to prevent users from inadvertently encountering explicit imagery.
The functionality will be rolled out in the “coming months.”

Google is preparing to make a change to the SafeSearch feature on Google Search. Soon the feature will automatically blur any explicit imagery that appears in your search results by default if you don’t have the SafeSearch filter on.

To celebrate Safer Internet Day, the Mountain View-based firm put up a post on its blog to discuss how it’s keeping its users safe while online. Within that post, Google mentions a change coming to its SafeSearch feature.
