Digg Censoring The Word WristWatch?

Digg Censoring The Word WristWatch?

Posted in:

I was doing my morning Digg surfing when I came across an interesting article on the main page with one of the words censored out of the title. I don't know when Digg starting censoring dirty words, but I wasn't logged in and I guess it's enabled by default.

Wristwatch Censored

My first thought was what explicit word could possibly be here and make sense? I had to log in to find out.

Wristwatch Uncensored

Of course! Everyone knows the common explicit definition of wristwatch. What, you didn't? Neither did I. I guess they've still got some kinks to work out of the censoring system. I'll be doing my Digg surfing logged in from now on, because who knows what I'm missing.

Actually, it's probably due to having a dirty word embedded in it Twat, to be specific :)

Like we said still some kinks to work out. But you are probably correct on that one.
