On December 3, 2018, Tumblr announced major changes to its adult content policies effective December 17, banning all images and videos depicting sex acts, and images and videos depicting real-life human genitalia or female-presenting nipples. Exceptions are provided for illustrations or art that depict nudity, nudity related to "political or newsworthy speech", and depictions of female-presenting nipples in relation to medical events such as childbirth, breastfeeding, mastectomy and gender reassignment surgery. The new rules do not apply to text content. All posts in violation of the new policy will be hidden from public view.[54][55]

The change has faced wide criticism among Tumblr's community; in particular, it has been argued that the service should have focused on other major issues (such as controlling hate speech), and that the service's adult community provided a platform for sex education, independent adult performers (especially those representing LGBT communities who feel that they are underrepresented by a heteronormative mainstream industry) seeking an outlet for their work, and those seeking a safe haven from "over-policed" platforms.[56][57]

Censorship

Several countries have blocked Tumblr because of pornography, religious extremism or LGBT content. These countries include China,[89] Indonesia, Kazakhstan[90] and Iran.[91] In February 2016, the Indonesian government temporarily blocked access to Tumblr within the country because the site hosts pages that carried porn. The government shortly reversed its decision to block the site and said it had asked Tumblr to self-censor its pornographic content.[92]

In November 2018, Tumblr's iOS app was pulled by Apple after illegal child pornography images were found on the service. Tumblr stated that all images uploaded to the service are scanned against an industry database, but that a "routine audit" had revealed images that had not yet been added to the database.[93] In the wake of the incident, a number of Tumblr blogs — particularly those dealing primarily in adult-tagged artwork such as erotica, as well as art study and anatomy resources — were also deleted, with affected users taking to other platforms (such as Twitter) to warn others and complain about the deletions, as well as encourage users to back up their blog's contents.[94][95] Tumblr subsequently announced a wider ban on explicit images of sex acts and nudity on the platform with certain limited exceptions.[54]

(and take note folks, this is happening 22 months into the Trump presidency—though Apple likely shares some blame here.)
