I don’t believe you.
Back in the mid-1990’s a friend of mine, a gun owner, was searching for some information using one of those pre-google search engines. He discovered that “Colt” is what homosexuals call young boys.
And I was searching for some SQL Server info at my job at T-Mobile a couple of years ago and one of the sites it brought up was raw pr)n. We’re talking a full scrollable page of people “in the act”. I went back to google (It was difficult because the page did not want to close) and took a screen print of the page that took me to it (including the search values proving I was searching work stuff) and emailed it to myself in case HR accused me of surfing Pr0n.
And if safe search is off, try searching ANY female name in google images. It’s all right there.
I actually stopped using hotmail and switched to Gmail several years ago for a single reason: Google is all text. Every time I went to Hotmail I had to see pictures of scantily clad women telling me how I could lose weight or other such nonsense. One finally tipped me over the top.
“Lead me not into temptation...”
OK. So you don’t believe me. That’s your choice but I’m telling you whether you believe it or not, that in all my years of web surfing I’ve never inadvertently or “accidently” brought up any xxx pr0n sites. Never. I’ve received some suspicious spam over the years but I’m smart enough not to click on the links of the very few pieces of spam that manage to get past my spam filters.

Then T-Mobile must not use very good web filtering because where I work, and for that matter at companies where I’ve worked over the last 10 years, it’s nearly impossible to bring up any inappropriate web sites. At the last place I worked, the Washington Post was listed as a forbidden site (come to think of it, probably for good reason :), ). Where I work now all social media sites like Facebook are blocked as is YouTube and even the Pennsylvania State Lottery website – Gambling sites are forbidden – LOL!

OK. I searched in Google images with safe search off on the very common female name “Jennifer”. Lot’s of beautiful women, some in bikinis but not seeing any xxxporn. Perhaps your definition of xxxporn is different than mine.

And you are in IT? Really?
