I use voice dictation a lot. When I use it for work I need to censor myself.
When I come to Lemmy I’m not going to go through the trouble of finding the voice dictation setting 12 layers deep so that it won’t censor the word fuck.
Inadvertently some assholes comes along after every one spicy comments to let me know I can say fuck on the internet.
F*** them.
Why would you have censorship on your dictation software? It’s not like you want either “fuck” or “f***” in professional writing
f***
is perfectly acceptable at my job
Nonetheless, I must ask: who, where, when and how?

.ml users hate this one weird trick
Suicide and murder are normal words as well. I’m seeing things like weed or cocaine blocked lately too.
GTA RPers would be pretty fucked if they needed to stop saying the names of drugs
Suicide is normal word sure, but Toaster-bath is more fun
I don’t have a toaster or a bathtub. Is air fryer in a shower a suitable alternative?
Do we have ididnthaveeggs lemmunity here?
Ye it’s hard being a protogen :(
The opening song for the movie and tv series MASH was Suicide is painless
The radio version be like
fuck
On the Intenet
Darmok and Galad
At Tenagra
Fuck yeah!
obligatory bunk mcnulty do csi.
FUCKING

Meanwhile on Youtube “This PDF File Game-Ended himself because he was caught with Child SA Corn and now he’s unalive.”
God that’s fucking annoying. The other week I was listening to a podcast that also has episodes on YouTube. They were talking about farming and had to bleep the word ‘rapeseed’. The fuck are we doing guys.
You used to be able to watch beheadings online, now a farmer can’t even talk about his crops online without the censorship police getting involved…
Maybe the farmer shouldn’t depend on corporations for their platform then.
Build a Youtube alternative

Well sure, but you also used to :D
No doubt there’s still sites which have it, but it feels like it used to be more common to run into that sort of material, even on places like YouTube.
I’ve only seen one - journalist Daniel Pearl. It was shown when I studied journalism back in 2002. Part of a cautionary discussion about the dangers of reporting on war and conflics.
My Lanta!
Duck that.

What you’re referring to is a recent trend of social media platforms enforcing a wordlist ban, causing people to resort to using “newspeak”, coined from the book 1984.
Newspeak was a language where negative words were not allowed. You can literally see it on platforms like TikTok, where people say “unalive” instead of “kill”, “seggs” instead of “sex”, or “oui’d” instead of “weed”.

i don’t think newspeak is a good term for it, that implies an authority is forcing specific language onto people to limit their communications
what’s happening is the precise opposite, people are inventing new language to keep communicating the same things despite being censored, it’s the exact same thing that happened in hong kong with the chinese censorship.
That’s a good point! I’ve always heard it referred to as newspeak, but there is indeed a small but important distinction between the two.
The end result is similar, but the way there is the opposite (blocking vs enforcing)
I think comparing it to newspeak is still a good warning however, as they are caused by similar pressures applied in different ways, but algospeak is the more accurate term.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Algospeak
Algospeak is the use of coded expressions to evade automated moderation algorithms on social media platforms such as TikTok and YouTube. It is used to discuss topics deemed sensitive to moderation algorithms while avoiding penalties such as shadow banning or downranking of content.
Thank you, I wasn’t aware of this term!
You’re welcome. I only learned of it myself a few weeks ago.
oui’d” instead of “weed”.
My french is in pain 🥖
fuck nazism and especially fuck corporations like alphabet inc that force content creators to censor words like Hitler and holocaust because they’re not “advertiser friendly” enough
Fuck, Alphabet did it during COVID. YouTubers had to talk around the pandemic or the Great Algorithm of Everything might demonetize or de-prioritize their videos. Yes, let’s not talk about the most pressing topic affecting the entire planet because it makes a few marketing geniuses sads… brilliant.
Fuck I forgot about the whole “human malware” thing
