What is Tumblr?

Techniques

Tumblr is a website that lets young people create personal blog pages. Here, they can post text, images, music clips, videos, GIFs – as well as reblog content from other users and interact with them. As such it has become very popular among teens who like to express themselves creatively and connect with others. Furthermore Tumblr boasts an abundance of creative and interesting material which makes it an excellent platform for learning about different topics.

Tumblr can be a potential minefield of pornographic content due to the lack of filtering or moderation by the site. This could be especially dangerous for older men and women who tend to consume adult content online. To mitigate this risk, set up your Tumblr account to filter certain hashtags from appearing in your home feed; this will prevent hardcore pornographic material from appearing there.
