Twitter Adds "Possibly Sensitive"  Designation To Tweets With NSFW Content

Twitter has just announced to developers that it has added a field for "possibly_sensitive" content in its streaming API, in a test that will eventually result in more granular end-user media settings.Twitter representative Carolyn Penner tells me that this API change means that eventually when users flag their own or other users' content as NSFW, a warning will show up before in the media details pane of the tweet informing other users of potentially sensitive content before they click-through. While the ability to flag content as sensitive has existed since Twitter launched Photos, the "sensitive content" flag on the details pane is new, Penner says.
