How much violent content is even out there that you couldn't just trivially block by just collecting a list of content-id? How much of it would you need to watch in full to pass judgement?
I seriously don't get why this is a problem in the first place. Every tiny nip-slip gets you instantly blocked on Facebook and Instagram. They always default to "block" without any closer inspection. They are content moderators after all, not criminal investigators, there shouldn't be a need to watch it in every detail. So why are they watching enough violent videos to cause trauma and not just hitting the block button or let the computer do the work?
It's in the article.
