Tips

culture

黄 (huáng, yellow) is Chinese internet slang for pornographic - likely from the early-20th-century association of yellow press with sensationalism. 鉴 (jiàn) = to examine/appraise, 师 (shī) = a master/professional. The job became internet-famous around 2017 when Chinese platforms hired moderators in bulk to comply with content laws.
