Google is cracking the whip on blogs with Adult contents, Starting March 23, 2015, you won't be able to publicly share images and videos that are sexually explicit or show graphic nudity on Blogger.

According to Search Giant "If your existing blog does have sexually explicit or graphic nude images or video, your blog will be made private after March 23, 2015. No content will be deleted, but private content can only be seen by the owner or admins of the blog and the people who the owner has shared the blog with."

The new policy also states "If you’d rather take your blog down altogether, you can export your blog as a .xml file or archive your blog's text and images using Google Takeout."
A Google spokesperson said, “We’ve updated our policy to fall in line with our policies across Google’s hosted products (including products like YouTube or Google+). So starting March 23, 2015, you won’t be able to publicly share images and video that are sexually explicit or show graphic nudity on Blogger.

The exceptions to this policy caution users from using "Blogger as a way to make money on adult content. For example, don't create blogs that contain ads for or links to commercial porn sites." "We’ll still allow nudity if the content offers a substantial public benefit. For example, in artistic, educational, documentary, or scientific contexts."
