Google  have warned all Blogspot blogger admin that if a blog content will have any kind of explicit content on the blog post then Google will directly delete or remove the blog for its listing. Google says that all the blogger should remove all the explicit content from its blogs before March 23, 2015.

Earlier Google used to allow “images or videos that contain NSFW content” as long as the blogger warned its visitors it was hosting above 18+ content and the blog reader was above 18 year of age. But with the revised policy, blog having the explicit content will now automatically be made private i.e. Google won't index and make them available in Google Search. Only Blog admins can see the blog not the visitors.

This step will not totally banned explicit content to all the blogs, however Google says it “may make exceptions based on artistic, educational, documentary, or scientific considerations or where there are other substantial benefits to the public from not taking action on the content.”
