2600 Magazine has compiled a list of objectionable words that Google Instant has blacklisted. Several volunteers have submitted blacklisted words or phrases and the current count of such entries stands at 445.
If you run a website that allows user submissions, you may face the possibility of visitors posting swear words and content that is not family-friendly. To censor user comments, you can take advantage of the above mentioned compilation of black-listed words to validate against. This kind of filtering is a work perpetually in progress.
While on the topic of crowd-sourced content validation, did you know, YouTube has a copyright detection system that can find if a user-submitted uploaded video infringes on copyrights?
