The "sensitive content" is a picture of Arthur Ashe holding up a trophy. Maybe the warning is there to alert people of the upcoming slowness in downloading content.

I remember that match. Cheered for Ashe…at the time I thought Connors was too brash. I didn’t go look I’ll bet that sensitive content is a Black man showing he beat a White man. Totally unacceptable in today’s society. I wish I could add a sarcasm emoji.
