Abstract:
Techniques are described that determine when content to be shared by a user may be offensive, and providing the user with a notification that the content may be offensive. In some examples, the user may be provided with a notification that includes a selectable option allowing the user to withdraw or undo the content from being shared, additional information regarding why the content was determined to be offensive, content sharing guidelines, and/or advice for how to revise the content to be less offensive. In some examples, the notification may be presented for a predetermined period of time, and the content may be held in a pending state and not shared with other users until expiration of the predetermined period.
