    With a redaction as bad as a Gaussian blur at such a high resolution (and a dictionary of only 2048 candidates), you don't need multiple angles to decipher those words. It'd be great if they replaced the key with bogus words first before blurring to troll people, but somehow I doubt it.

This is what I do 99% of the time I use blur to censor information; just replace the text with, say, colorful words of the same length before blurring. Would be neat if there was an automated tool that could do something similar.
