Imgur, an image-hosting site that has been one of the web’s go-to spots for linking hi-res images since 2010, has told users that it intends to remove “explicit images” and “old, unused, and inactive content” as of May 15.

The new Terms of Service are somewhat expanded upon in a post in the Safety & Standards section of Imgur’s help section.

“We will be focused on removing old, unused, and inactive content that is not tied to a user account from our platform as well as nudity, pornography, & sexually explicit content,” the page reads. “Most notably, this would include explicit/pornographic content.” Imgur notes that it will “employ automated detection software” alongside human moderators to identify explicit content.
