    So someone couldn’t post actual porn or porn videos, legal of course, on WordPress.com even if it was labeled as mature?

    If it’s legal in the US you can post it. Just don’t expect anyone to be able to find it.

    Except, of course, blogs flagged as 'mature' are excluded from the tags pages, from the recently updated list, from the front page and probably from Google searches as well.
    
    Compared to most other blog hosts, WordPress content is fairly heavily censored already. You'd have to be pretty stupid to post your porn here if you wanted people to actually see it.

    Is the mature flag optional or up to the blogger? Case in point–something in the Fastest Growing Blog section: http://lielani.wordpress.com/

    It’s up to the blogger in question to notify staff that their blog has “mature” contents that are “not safe for work”. If they don’t then any other blogger can report the site and the staff will make the call http://faq.wordpress.com/2006/05/07/ive-seen-a-blog-with-unsuitable-content-how-do-i-tell-you/
    You see if these blogs are not so labeled and bloggers volunteering to answer questions on the forum click on the blog when trying to help they can get into big trouble with their bosses (or even their spouses) who may misinterpret the situation and think the volunteers are into watching porno at work.

    you cant delete them. If you have read the FAQ, you will know that wordpress only deletes blogs with illegal content (selling drugs, etc.), not just blogs with content people are offended by. The best thing to do is to never post links to those sites, and to flag them as mature. that way they don’t appear in listings around wordpress.com

    also, lettershometoyou is right

    “What you’re suggesting might make sense to you, but where does it end?
    Someone who doesn’t like right-wing politics will say: delete right-wing blogs.
    Someone who doesn’t like Muslims will say: delete Muslim blogs.
    Someone who doesn’t like Cheezburgers will say: delete cat pic blogs.

    Someone who doesn’t like your blog will say: delete your blog.

    You get to choose what you see and what you don’t. “

    different people are offended by different things.

    I wish someone would close this thread and get the thing off the front page. Where do these people think we are Turkey? Its just moralistic puritanical crap.

    It’s also getting repetitive.
