I'm normally a freeforall type who doesn't like censorship, but I don't feel the filter has impeded much. It's sometimes a surprise when something I am so used to is replaced by stars. I have never understood what opposition to profanity is all about, since one can simply replace profanity with a literal definition and not be censored and be a lot more offensive in the bargain. But people rarely do that.

Tabletrat, does she ever refer to the UK as quelques arpents de merde, habités par des barbares?

Not going to sift through the thread. Let's not forget the kiddie filters and company firewalls that block profanities. If they're allowed then I don't suppose a few ITT pages would become inaccesable.

She may be a canadian but she is no way near that polite!

You just found one! I got my n800 on my 14th birthday and have loved it. I'm probably one of the few people who owns an n800 in Cleveland. But thats understandable since i've been using Ubuntu since I was 13.
