Cens+rship g+ne t++ f+cking f+r.
That article is shit to read. What's the point in censoring words?
Likely search engine ranking. The internet is getting worse every fucking day.
Surfing porn on Google vs. Bing is an eye opening experience.
Google: "Fuck it all up. We don't want to be seen as a porn engine."
Microsoft: "How do we beat Google in search?!"
"Make porn pics and images easy?"
Worked!
But then you get weird shit. One day searching "tiny titties" gets you no NSFW results, the next it's flooded with 9yo Russian kids. "Flat chested"? Meh, one day it's "flats", the shoes, the next, 9yo Russian kids again. Fuck me. I like little titties, OK?! I just want to see them on women. Preferably "asian amateur lesbian cosplay tiny titty white lingerie face sitting lesdom wedding dress" kinda women. Is that too much to ask?! I was told this was the future. :(
Do search engines not want articles about porn or do they just don't like the word? Because substituting one letter doesn't do shit if you want to obscure what you're talking about.
