It's a warning out of respect for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders (ATSI).
They are a nation of many communities and with varying cultural protocols. A widespread part of their culture is that it's disrespectful to mention names and share images or recordings of those who have passed, especially during a period of mourning. It is believed that in doing so, it will disturb the spirit of the deceased.
It can also be very distressful.
These warnings are provided for those who are a part of the ATSI community. It allows them to choose before watching a program or reading an article.
