Content mocking the concept of non-consensual sexual touching

We may restrict visibility to people over the age of 18 and include a warning label on certain fictional videos (e.g. digital and hand-drawn imagery, film and TV show scenes, comic books, music videos) that depict non-consensual sexual touching.

In addition to our at-scale policy of removing content that threatens or advocates rape or other non-consensual sexual touching, we may also disable the posting account.

We may also enforce on content shared by a third party that identifies survivors of sexual assault when reported by an authorised representative or trusted partner.
