Safari on iPhone with IOS 14: Safe Search Problem

Hi!

I use an external DNS service for filtering out adult content like Cloudflare Family Filter and Cleanbrowsing Adult Filter. One of its features is that it enforces Safe Search mode for Google, Bing and such. It has been working great on ALL my devices until I recently upgraded my iPhones to iOS 14.

Note: I am a rather technical guy how’s been on the internet since the 90s, so I know what I am talking about. 

Example:

1) Clear DNS Cache: Press Inflight mode

2) Enable Wifi

3) Open Safari and surf to bing.com

4) Search for the word “sex”.

5) Suspend Safari by pressing Home-button

6) Wait 5-10 seconds

7) Bring Safari up again and hit Refresh

8) Now you see links to adult content

I have repeated the above sequence on my other devices (old iPads, laptops) but the Safe Search is still enforced. That’s why I am pretty sure it’s iOS 14 is the culprit here.

Could someone else here try the above sequence and verify or debunk my findings?
