Thanks for the question. If our participant were to try and "think" something, it won't work. This is not a mind-reading device. Instead, he has to try and it say it for it to work. The system maps a sequence of phonemes decoded from neural signals into words on a screen. The words are selected from a 125,000 word dictionary, and he can add custom words to the list. So, to answer your question, if he were to add "OMG" and "STFU" to the dictionary, then he could say them (if he wanted to).
