Military Photos dot net applies some really weird censorship to forum posts. All of your typical profanity is X-ed out (asterisk-ed out, actually), along with things like porn, pron and strip. So common military terms like prone and airstrip show up as ****e and air*****. They also have it in for the Reuters news agency. Every instance of the name is overwritten. I have no idea why.
So I was really surprised when I saw the
F word in plain sight in a post. Did the censor program have a brain ****? Did the powers that be suddenly relax their standards? This is just too weird.
Copying and pasting to a couple of different editors did not reveal anything. Saving the page and then looking at the html revealed the secret code, shown in the title above.
