Maybe I am being stupid, but I cannot see anywhere where you describe what you consider to be "NSFW"

Looking at the code, it looks like they're using TensorFlow to rate images, videos etc. [0], specifically the SQRX family of models [1].

The description itself is NSFW so it got deleted the second they wrote it since they were running the addon at the time. Just goes to show how effective it is /s

The "About this extension" section has in the top paragraph:

  It targets pornography, borderline sexualized content, as well as other graphic images that are not safe for work (NSFW) or may be inappropriate for children.
And then more details as the other commenter pointed out: https://github.com/wingman-jr-addon/model#dataset

Your response is interesting because it tells me you maybe expected it to be in a different spot - was there a specific spot you were looking at? Might help me improve the descriptions.

Ok, then what I mean is "what do you consider to be pornographic"?

In some countries it's not NSFW to see a naked breast, I am going to assume this software does not take that into account.

Am I right?

A bigger point one could make is that this is projecting your cultural norms onto the internet as the "default".

It's a cool idea, though.
