Google SafeSearch No Longer An Option

Google just made their search engine more child friendly by not giving their users the option to disable SafeSearch.  At least, for now, this is true in some countries like the U.S.  The drop-down menu found in the upper right corner of image search that allows the users to select the option to Off, Moderate or Strict SafeSearch have been removed and replaced with choices that would further filter search results from explicit words or images.

As for our country, we still have the option to have the original drop-down menu (as found below) or migrate to the new one.  Unless if you don't know how.  Of which I won't be giving any hint here (unless of course you're a keen observer).

For those in the U.S. and those affected by the change, here is what it currently looks like:

Google even changed the search settings found by clicking the gear icon beside SafeSearch.  Now, the only option there is to give their users more ways to enhance the SafeSearch feature of their browser (i.e. Filter explicit results, Lock SafeSearch, and Block unwanted sites).  More, once the user chose to filter explicit results, strict SafeSearch would be in effect.  Meaning all explicit words and images Google recognizes would no longer be shown or included in the search, as shown below: 

Well, this may be a hassle to people who wants to see adult contents.  I wouldn't worry about that, since even with the filters on, they always find a way.  But to us parents, Google made us a huge favor by providing precaution and tools in protecting our young ones against pornographic materials that are freely circulating in the net today.  This significant move is greatly appreciated, many thanks and hoping you continue with this advocacy.  Yahweh bless.
