Challenge #01449-C354: Sorry, I'm Redacted

[Person #1, in an actual, audible conversation]: [Person #2], I know you're frustrated, and I feel very ████ about that, but █████ ███████████ to ██████████ ██████ with ████████████ ██████████ ████ █████████

[Person #2]: STOP DOING THAT!!! -- RecklessPrudence

"I really can't, El. Ever since I signed a ND contract with ███████████, they installed an auto-redactor in my █████████████ so that no industry secrets can accidentally escape."

"Well, at least try to keep away from industry secrets, Vi."

"I would, but they've even copyrighted words like ████, and that's one of my favourites. I wish I'd never ██████ ██ ████ ██████ ███ ███ ███ in the first place."

"Do you have any idea how painful that is to hear? How unnerving it is to look at?"

"I know. I know. I can change sound and sight modes if I get promoted. And the less it gets used, the more likely I am to get a promotion, but if you're going to bring up ███████ ██████████ then it's gonna come out. I'm sorry. It's a █████ ████. What? I can't even say that?"

"Your NDA should not be covering your personal opinions... maybe you should go to a medic-lawyer and get it checked out."

Vi sighed. "I would, but the auto-redactor is proprietary and only ███████████ licenced staff can service it. And they tell me that everything's ██████."

"Just how many everyday words has this company copyrighted?"

"Oh, somewhere around █████."

"I don't know how much that is, but that just sounds scary."

"I know. So much for ███████ ██ ██████."

There’s an instruction manual containing words that can get anyone who uses them on a terrorist watch list just for using them online.

Lots of them can be used in completely innocent ways. For instance: telling all the folks in InternetLand all the words that you’re not allowed to use any more.

How long, folks, before there’s an online competition to use as many of these words as humanly possible

Didn’t something like this happen in Egypt, recently? Didn’t something like that fail worse than the Titanic? Don’t these people remember what happened to the last douchebag who tried this?
