I'm surprised to see finance pop-up so high in the list... What's going on?

Crypto currency pump and dump schemes for the most part.
Without forgetting Mixers, Credit-Card sellers, Paypal-related schemes, CryptoWallets, Escrows ...
I would strongly advice anyone interested by the labels frequencies of dataset to get a look at the json file provided. Interesting thing is not that much the frequency of X or Y labels, but the frequency of one set of labels. (this would be a great addition on the webpage actually).

Pictures can have multiple labels. And so, having the ratio of "Forum + Drugs + Finance" vs "Market-place + Weapons" dispense more information than just the global frequency of "Finance"-related pages :)
