And who decides which image belongs to which category. The one that will 
use the filter or the one that tags the image?

Additionally: Is the reader able to choose if China would use the tags 
to exclude content before it can the reader? Wouldn't we be responsible 
it, if the feature is misused this way, since we know how easy it can be 
misused?
