I f**king love how censoring curse words has become the new c*rsing for the internet!
Used to be that cursing was a way to show your disdain for having restrictions placed on your freedom of expression. Now cursing without censorship is considered "polite internet speech" and adding an * is offensive and uncouth. Your right to express yourself how you choose be d*mned!
The irony is too good!
I thought it was to get around algorithms suppressing things that aren't considered "family friendly."
Im pretty sure they can find a way around censors. My assumption is for sending a meme to someone's grandma who is sensitive to swears.
