I feel like clicking that link would make it super evident that you have 'sensitive content' to hide.

It detects nudes, and a lot of people will have nudes on their devices.

The steps from the article:

So, if you wish to uninstall or disable SafetyCore, take these steps:

  • Open Settings: Go to your device's Settings app
  • Access Apps: Tap on 'Apps' or 'Apps & Notifications'
  • Show System Apps: Select 'See all apps' and then tap on the three-dot menu in the top-right corner to choose 'Show system apps'
  • Locate SafetyCore: Scroll through the list or search for 'SafetyCore' to find the app
  • Uninstall or Disable: Tap on Android System SafetyCore, then select 'Uninstall' if available. If the uninstall option is grayed out, you may only be able to disable it
  • Manage Permissions: If you choose not to uninstall the service, you can also check and try to revoke any SafetyCore permissions, especially internet access

However, some have reported that SafetyCore reinstalled itself during system updates or through Google Play Services, even after uninstalling the service. If this happens, you'll need to uninstall SafetyCore again, which is annoying.
