I've noticed lately that, on a lot of American-made TV (and
possibly British, though I haven't seen it), not only do they
beep out profanities, but they momentarily put a "blur
box" over the speaker's mouth.
This is bizarre, but I presume it is to protect sensitive lip-
readers. Frankly, I'm
fucked if I can see what big deal is,
but there you go.
Howevertheless, despite all the beeping and blurring, you
don't have to be a fucking genius to work out exactly what
has been said. I mean, if hearing/lip-reading viewers
hear/see someone say "Get your ___ing goat off my
deckchair!", the blanks more or less fill themselves in.
The solution, thencefore, is to bleep-out and blur-out the
immediate context of the profanity, so that it becomes
"Get ___ _______ ____ __ __ ______ir!."
Of course, even then, anyone who has been watching the
program will probably be aware of the general character of
the protagonists, and will be able to construe that heated
argument, including profanity, is likely to arise given the
circumstances portrayed. The solution to this is simply to
bleep-out and blur-out the entire fucking program.

Just farm out to Thailand, last time I watched
Thai TV they had blurred out the cigarettes
people were smoking, and the beer bottles
people were drinking from in old black and
white films. |

Remember, bleeping technology can be used for good
purposes too (see link). |
