I understand that IoTD is the "bread and butter" of this site, and also that many people may be surfing from work (like myself). I don't personally have the problem where an imposed net filter reads bits of language from message boards, but I understand that some people might have this problem.

(Sub-Poll: has anyone experienced this type of filtering at the office?)

In the above scenario, one would simply need to avoid the "bot" by substituting characters, IE "fvck" or "ƒuck" for fuck. (Alt+0131 = ƒ)
