But now, the social network site has added in the users "Account Settings" section, more options to choose if you want to display media from people you don't follow and displaying media that may contain some sensitive content rendering them NSFW (Not Safe For Work), see the screenshot below for the options.
If you opt in to receive such information, as soon as you click on the "save" button, twitter will prompt you to enter your twitter account password for confirmation before applying the choice in your settings.
The announcement that can be read from their developers site, reads:
"Beginning today you may notice a new boolean field in API responses & streams containing tweets: "possibly_sensitive". This new field will only surface when a tweet contains a link. The meaning of the field doesn't pertain to the tweet content itself, but instead it is an indicator that the URL contained in the tweet may contain content or media identified as sensitive content. During this initial testing phase, there's nothing you need to do with this field and the field values cannot be relied on for accuracy. In the future, we'll have a family of additional API methods & fields for handling end-user "media settings" and possibly sensitive content."
