Google Image Search - Image Search - Filter More Inappropriate Images

SUMMARY: Increase Google's SafeSearch level and remove more potentially inappropriate images.

When using Google's image search, Google performs "SafeSearch" technology on the results, meaning that it tries to filter out inappropriate images. This filtering technology is not perfect, yet if it fails to work, you can tune it higher so Google tries to filter out even more inappropriate content.
