My daughter was talking with a friend over iMessage. They were like playing a game where they search all emojis with a certain color. When she tried to send the message in this picture, the iPhone rejected, with the alert saying she was sending a nude. There’s nothing there, only emojis. What could’ve triggered the warning?

Probably the fact that it contains the 'tie the knot' emoji and the 'squirt' emoji...

Edit: Those spotted in the last 3 rows, if it helps locate them.

How is "tie the knot" associated with nudes?

[–] over_clox@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago (1 children)

It all depends on how one interprets 'tie the knot', and I have no idea how Apple's software interprets it..

🐕🪢🐩...

[–] blackbrook@mander.xyz 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

You could say that about anything. That you called out that emoji suggests you know of some particular interpretation of it that relates to nudity. Care to share?

[–] over_clox@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I am not here to teach people about how K9 reproduction works. I posted enough with those 3 emojis.

If you don't already know, then you don't need to know.

[–] blackbrook@mander.xyz 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Ha, I hadn't paid any attention those dog emojis (I think I tend to filter those out). Ok, seems a stretch, but I guess who knows what weirdness you may get with overuse of AI.

[–] over_clox@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

Indeed, hard to say what the hell triggered Apple or their AI shit, just spotting a random guess. Clearly it's not a nude though.

[–] BCsven@lemmy.ca 22 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Is it those images where you unfocus your eyes and it appears lol. Could be the image hash happens to be a match to a nude hash??

You know what? THERE IS NO EASTER BUNNY! Over there? That’s just a guy in a suit!!

[–] atro_city@fedia.io 22 points 1 month ago (1 children)

iPhones scan messages? So much for privacy...

[–] argh_another_username@lemmy.ca 9 points 1 month ago (1 children)

The phone protect kids from sending nudes. (AFAIK it happens on the phone, not on a server). The phone has a series of protections for kids. She can’t message someone I don’t approve, no message or call from people not on the contact list can enter. But still, someone could grab her friend’s phone and ask for nudes. In this particular case, I entered my parent code and the message was sent. I fail to see how this is bad.

[–] jjjalljs@ttrpg.network 17 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I wonder if it's exceeded the max length and caused a poorly handled error

[–] argh_another_username@lemmy.ca 5 points 1 month ago

It could be, but I managed to send it by entering my parent code.

It’s a feature that parents can toggle on to help prevent their kids from sending CSAM, and receiving unwanted dick pics. The choice of censorship is entirely on the parent.

The emojis are a little far tho..

[–] Bezier@suppo.fi 12 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Iphones may refuse to send "inappropriate" messages? Fuck that.

The problem is that you can't detect such things accurately and that some clowns still want to force it on everyone.

[–] argh_another_username@lemmy.ca 6 points 1 month ago

I have no problem with that. I entered my parent code and the message was sent.

[–] tal@lemmy.today 9 points 1 month ago

I don't know, but start shaving off emojis to see when it'll accept it and you might get some hints.

[–] quediuspayu@lemmy.world 8 points 1 month ago

The AI considered that first row AI porn

[–] Visstix@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago

Well clearly the Sudanese flag is wrong since it does not contain blue.

The robot has a flesh tongue? Like FCG.

[–] nylo@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 month ago

I see critical role, I updoot.

[–] SnekZone@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 points 1 month ago

I bet there is programms out there, that can convert pictures into rows of emojis, just like with ascii-art. Maybe thats what they're trying to guard against 🤷‍♂️

[–] Resol@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago

The flag of South Sudan uses the wrong shade of blue. Or at least I think that's what's wrong since I'm not sure software vendors care about the exact color values of flags. Some operating systems still use the darker blue for Honduras for example.

[–] Nemo@slrpnk.net 4 points 1 month ago

too many cop emojis, that's what's wrong with it

[–] creamlike504@jlai.lu 1 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Slight tangent: Would blocking still work if they tried to send nudes via Snapchat?

I'm not "asking for a friend," I'm just curious how effective this feature could possibly be.
