Filter, block, or report content on Flickr
At Yahoo, we make your daily habits inspiring and entertaining
The ability to share with one another and take an active part in the community
is an important part of enjoying your experience using Flickr
We’re all different and in communities with so many perspectives, you may see things you don’t like or don’t agree with
If you come across topics you find offensive, words you don’t like, or if you just don’t want to see something, ...
Yahoo provides tools to help you tailor the content you see
In Flickr, you can tailor what you see with SafeSearch or you can block someone
Set up SafeSearch filters to show you only what is safe for a global, public audience when you search or browse
Filter with SafeSearch
Click “Settings” from your buddy icon
Go to the Privacy and Permissions tab, scroll down to the Content filters section,
and click “edit” next to SafeSearch
Select “SafeSearch on” and click “Save Changes”
If you don’t want someone to see your content and interact with you, you can block them
People you block are removed as your contacts and you’re removed as theirs
They can’t comment on your photos or albums, add your photos to galleries or as favorites,
blog them, or add notes or tags
They also can’t add you to photos or send you FlickrMail
To block someone, click his name
Select “Block” from the “more” menu
Select the check box and click “Block”
At times, you may see more serious issues that you feel Yahoo needs to review
If you see something like this, we encourage you to report them to us
We review reports and take appropriate action
To report serious issues, click the photo you want to report
At the bottom of the page, click “Report Abuse”
Select “Other Concerns” from the menu, enter any additional details, and click “Send”
We hope these steps help you continue to enjoy using Flickr
