This sounds like a you problem. Suppose you have software that shows famous faces and quotes as a screensaver would you make it by default not show anyone of color so it would be acceptable in rural Oklahoma or make it show no women so it would be acceptable in Iran?

In rural Oklahoma, it is entirely acceptable to have “anyone of colour” portrayed in something like a screensaver.

I don’t know much about Iran, but depictions of women seem common in advertising there.
