Comment on Why is sharpedo blocked in image searches on DuckDuckGo and Bing, but not Google?

I had that thought, too, but “torpedo” and “pedometer” came back without issue.

That’s because they’re known words to exclude from the filter. Nobody’s flagged up sharpedo to their CSAM filter team yet.

So interestingly, slight misspellings will show the pokemon with a “Showing results for Sharpedo”, but if you click on that link the results will disappear. I also can’t find any other blocked examples with different made up words.
It’s weird, like it has been manually blocked
