If you’re in the U.S. and trying to search for boobs on Google Images right now, you’re out of luck. That’s because it appears that Google is preventing U.S. users from disabling SafeSearch.
Google users should be familiar with the SafeSearch toolbar at the top right of Image searches. Until recently, that bar allowed users to select MODERATE, STRICT, or OFF. As of right now, those options have been removed from the drop-down menu – but only in the U.S. it seems.
is it censorship? Is it the start of 'taking over the net'? Because this really seems like it right now.

It's their software, they can do with it what they want. It would only constitute censorship if Google were our only option for accessing the filtered content.
Of course, we can switch to a new search engine.
Bottom line, calm down...if you still want to search for your porn, you can, you just have to be more specific.
