Another question about Color on Quora, with a surprising answer:

  *How will Color Labs (startup) handle inappropriate photos?*
  Simply swipe a photo from someone, and a popup will show you 
  to choose Nudity, Violence or Hateful.
  That person will then be banned from Color, thus the only way 
  to get back on the system is buying a new iPhone or Android. [...]
  We also will ban a person from Color for abusing 
  the reporting system.

That sounds pretty harsh. It makes me wonder if they ban users automatically when a report comes in or if they screen the images before taking action. Also, what qualifies as 'nudity', 'violence', or 'hateful' according to Color Labs?

I installed the iPhone app a couple of days a go. I didn't see any warning that nudity wasn't allowed. Sure, I had to agree to their terms of use, but it had the length of a Tolkien novel, so I doubt anyone will bother reading it. I think there's a real risk that tons of users will be banned without ever having realized that their risqué photos weren't allowed.

And then there's the last line of Color Labs' answer: on HN, I frequently flag articles that I deem inappropriate. If I do so on Color, I risk being banned, not knowing whether my tolerance for offensive imagery is lower than that of Color Labs.
