Among the subjects and images some content providers say Verizon Wireless barred them from including:

  • Exposed male or female genitals
  • Bare buttocks
  • Explicit, obscured or implied sexual acts
  • Crude words or profanity
  • Language intended to incite violence
  • Hate speech
  • Glorification or promotion of criminal acts
  • Derogatory references to Verizon, Verizon Wireless or Vodafone
