> Websites cannot accurately classify content a lot of the time without human review.
This is the same whether NSFW content is banned or not. "It's banned but somebody posted it anyway" has no apparent solutions different than the problem of "the user is required to mark it but they didn't."
As an obvious example, adult content is nominally banned on sites like TikTok, and yet there are thousands of TikTok accounts that serve as the funnel for OnlyFans, with the creators dancing on the line of the site's policy (and often crossing it), only to create a new account and carry on if they get banned.
> NSFW content consumers aren't valuable to advertisers or ad network operators because they don't sell products that could be placed as a 'contextual' ad.
Which is fine because the ad slots are sold at auction. The ad network's choices are to get something or get nothing.
