Facebook has some reasonably strict guideline when it comes to what they appropriate on their internet site . They ’ll allow man nipples , but wo n’t allow any sexually implicative contentedness , for instance . They ’ll take into account fake intelligence to spread like wildfire , but they wo n’t brook even the mere hint of a female mamilla , breastfeeding included .
alas , sometimes their " no nudeness " insurance policy can run to a few untimely decisions when their image - recognition package decides to be over cautious .
One dog possessor found this out last week , after post a picture of his cute little pup . He moderate it in his hand , for scale .
Unfortunately , the algorithm , after someone cover the mail , appears to have mistaken the Mexican Hairless puppy – or Xoloitzcuintli – for a member , pull in the picture an inst forbiddance from the social mesh .
It was so penisy , he received the stock notification reserved for repugnant posts :
" We ’ve hidden this post because it does n’t watch our residential district standard . It ’ll be deleted from Facebook soon . "
The picture has since been put back up .
The C. W. Post was reported by another substance abuser of a group for beast lovers , because , in fairness , it really does look like a penis .
“ I got a notification saying it had been blocked a few minutes after I posted it to the chemical group , " Nikkitold the Mirror . " It ’s really hard for me to see the penis view because when I see at it I always just see the puppy . "
Screenshots of the post have gone viral on Twitter as well as Facebook , with many other mass win over at first that they were expect at a penis , not a puppy .
Even Twitter censored the movie .
The puppy is now a modest Twitter celebrity .
This is n’t the only hairless animal Facebook mixup this year .
Last month , this hairless wombat baby was mistaken for a human babe , with one Facebook drug user commenting " OMG Congratulations ! He ’s beautiful x I miss you so much " , before realizing " FACK I DIDN’T LOOK PROPERLy I THOUGHT YOUD HAD YOUR sister I’M SO SORRY OMG " .
