What?!?!
Could you show me where Google says a thing about "family values"?
If you're referring to safesearch, that's directed at blocking porn. I think any pornographic threads that show up would probably be spam, and hastily pruned as a result.
And I see other sites, fora, etc. with equivalent or higher densities (even assuming that all *****ed out words are the "worst" that would fit that length) of profanity in Google search results routinely, so I don't see any evidence that we would surpass any such hidden thresholds, even assuming that they do.
I understand your logic; I just think your premise that we would be restricted in search results if the filter were removed is wrong.
