Now just make a version that whites-out NSFW text in e-books and market it to Utahns as a way to read PG-13 versions of Game of Thrones books and you'll be rich.
However, you'll probably also be sued into oblivion by angry authors/publishers who don't like people modifying what they read in any way.
- KMnO4 6y agoI know that’s tongue in cheek, but I’d really appreciate having a NSFW text filter. Some of my CX team is getting harassed by trolls who send profane messages and racial slurs through the Zendesk Chat interface. Zendesk does not have a way to filter out profanity (for Chat at least; there are options for emails or tickets). I’ve found simple client side extensions that can censor words, but a better approach would use NLP to grasp the context. “I hope you die” contains the same words as “My <product> got wet, I hope it didn’t die”, but with vastly different intention.

Note however both Google (Alphabet, really) and the tool specifically, were accused of various forms of bias [2] by various sides of discourse. -- [1] https://jigsaw.google.com/issues/ https://jigsaw.google.com/issues/ [2] for example https://boingboing.net/2019/08/14/white-aligned-english.html https://boingboing.net/2019/08/14/white-aligned-english.html
