The abbreviated answer to this tricky clue
The answer we are looking for is NSFW. This means “NOT SAFE FOR WORK”, so how does that translate to don’t click in public. The reason is that NSFW means that they may be images and videos that are not good to show at work. In hindsight, these are images that you don’t want to click on or watch in public.
That is because these types of media often contain adult, violent, or even slightly sexual materials. In some cases, it is just straight-up pornography, so just keep that in mind. You wouldn’t want people seeing you watch these things in public.
