Idem. Phoebe++ :-)
I'm curious if there are any central brainstorming pages about an image filter, either on Meta-Wiki or mediawiki.org. If not, I'd be happy to start one.
Me 3! I'll definitely help. :-)
For example, if 90% of viewers in your country have hidden a particular image and you've set your personal threshold at 50%, an image might be automatically obscured. This isn't a perfect idea, but discussing and debating the merits of each idea might reveal a solution that's tenable.
There are well known standard attacks against pretty much any current user-facing data-collection system [1]. :-/ But perhaps there are even other ideas! :-)
