Monitoring digital images
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method for monitoring digital images, the method comprising:
- receiving, using a hardware processor, a content item from a first user device;
receiving, using the hardware processor, a notification from a second user device that the content item contains inappropriate content;
in response to receiving the notification, initiating an investigation that automatically determines a category of the inappropriate content contained in the content item;
updating metadata associated with the content item by inserting a status indicator of the investigation;
inhibiting the content item from being presented on other user devices including the first user device and the second user device based on the category of the inappropriate content and based on the status indicator inserted in the metadata of the content item in response to receiving a request from one of the user devices for the content item; and
transmitting a message to the first user device indicating that the content item has been blocked.

8. A system for monitoring digital images, the system comprising:
-
a memory; and a hardware processor that, when executing computer executable instructions stored in the memory, is programmed to; receive a content item from a first user device; receive a notification from a second user device that the content item contains inappropriate content; in response to receiving the notification, initiate an investigation that automatically determines a category of the inappropriate content contained in the content item; update metadata associated with the content item by inserting a status indicator of the investigation; inhibit the content item from being presented on other user devices including the first user device and the second user device based on the category of the inappropriate content and based on the status indicator inserted in the metadata of the content item in response to receiving a request from one of the user devices for the content item; and transmit a message to the first user device indicating that the content item has been blocked. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14)

15. A non-transitory computer-readable medium containing computer executable instructions that, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to perform a method for monitoring digital images, the method comprising:
-
receiving, using a hardware processor, a content item from a first user device; receiving, using the hardware processor, a notification from a second user device that the content item contains inappropriate content; in response to receiving the notification, initiating an investigation that automatically determines a category of the inappropriate content contained in the content item; updating metadata associated with the content item by inserting a status indicator of the investigation; inhibiting the content item from being presented on other user devices including the first user device and the second user device based on the category of the inappropriate content and based on the status indicator inserted in the metadata of the content item in response to receiving a request from one of the user devices for the content item; and transmitting a message to the first user device indicating that the content item has been blocked. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21)
