Humbly understand, Neenny, smaller deal that a bot does it, but still a deal...
Would it be different in your opinion if IHUB stated somewhere in the TOU that the system is programmed to XXXX-out profanity on the site, no matter where it is found.....publicly or privately. I would think that being a private site, it is within the "rights" of the site administrators to program their site to do such actions.
Absolutely. Would not be my preference, but would be better than doing it without saying it. And I'd learn to live with it.
Of course there is one simple solution.....for those in the know, about this happening.....if you don't use profanity, your message will be uncompromised.
Well, fergit dat! Not goin' cold turkey on profanity in private, no way Jose! More than one way to skin THAT cat - misspelling! (g)
But seriously, If a bot is intruding, what else, one might ask by extension, no? Your assumption that the intrusion stops with profanity morphing is based on trust, based on what? An intrusion? Sorta like, tell you what, I'll stick it in there only a little bit, but I promise you, you'll still be chaste when I get done.
It's a bad idea, causes mistrust, even if there's a warning or whatever posted wherever.
