I think there is a difference between using tags/categories like
"contains the depiction of a female breast" or "contains a portrait of
Muhammad" and "suitable for adults only" or "offensive to Islam". The
first way is an objective categorisation, and I see nothing wrong in
someone else using such categorisation to censor contents, while the
second way is too much culture dependent. Even a concept like "nudity"
strongly depends on culture, so I wouldn't use it as a categorisation.
