in the way our coverage of the Tiananmen Square protests does?
I think it's very stupid to equate "people
don't like this" to "this is a
problem".
So yes, the situation is still unchanged, but in my opinion it is a GOOD
thing that it's still unchanged. The advertising situation on Wikipedia is
"still unchanged", but unchanged situations don't have to be bad, and in
this case I am a firm believer that the status quo is far better than what
this woman (and many image filter proposals) is proposing.

Well, it's relevant to the extent that she came across a masturbation
video
while looking for something completely different.
(I think she said she
was
looking up "roll over".) Some people
don't like that. It's a problem
we've
discussed before:

The situation is still unchanged.
