  Ive been downvoted to hell and back for saying that on FFXIVs reddit back in the day

  They provide a literal toggle for you to bleep swear words out, yet you can get in trouble for using “fuck” in a way someone can perceive as insulting (which in some cases means using it at all)

  It should be fucking illegal to penalize someone by restricting access to paid content like a video game because someone else refused to use features built into that game

  Harassment and bypass? Fair game to get someone in trouble, though

  But then you have to see penis while writing penis on the blacklist!

  But I do wholeheartedly agree. Censorship should be opt-in, and no one should be bowing to government censorship.

    True, could be a default list that you remove them from. What a s*** storm. *long click and select unsensor once, unsensor all, or review blacklist.

    That way if people want to be sheltered they can never have to see it, and I can unblacklis> t them all at once, and the people afraid of the term moist can make sure they protect themselves via their list
