The Apple ‘Kill List’: What Your iPhone Doesn’t Want You to Type

Spell ‘electrodialysis’ wrong in a text, and Apple will correct you. Miss ‘abortion’ by one
letter? You’re on your own. A Daily Beast investigation into your iPhone's hidden taboos.

[...]

Note that the software in question is slightly different from autocorrect. With autocorrect, a user types a word, and halfway through the software will guess at what it thinks the person means. Our analysis does not cover the autocorrect feature. In fact, previous iOS software, before spell check was introduced in April 2010, autocorrected many of the words the latest software won’t. “Abortion,” “rape,” “drunken,” “arouse,” “murder,” “virginity,” and others were accurately autocompleted under iOS 3.1.3.
