Also, Google used to show lots of mainstream results for adult searches like "public nudity" etc. where they are now showing more adult results.

I do hear you about "looking in the mirror" and know that to be true. I'm just wondering what else could be true in all this.
"Public nudity" doesn't imply pornography or "adult" on its own. It could be a very general search by someone who just got charged with a related crime, maybe a trending news story either nationally or local to the end-users' area, etc., so I wouldn't even say that's an inherently "adult" keyword.

"public nudity porn" is, however.

Porn stars name only searches is almost always just porn sites and always has been, but sometimes a mainstream publication will write a story about a specific porn star or a group of porn stars. Vice.com (for example) is always going to out rank, at least temporarily, freeones.com or similar and definitely smallpornblogexample.com. Every time.

Google doesn't censor or filter adult sites. The way Google works today is much different from an end-user perspective than even a couple years ago, let alone a decade ago. Intent is extremely important, as is the data Google collects about users' intent as a macro sample.
