any open-source/free .NET profanity filter for website?

Question

Are you aware of any open-source/free .NET profanity filter (ASP.NET MVC to be precise)? I searched google but I couldn't come up with any. I would like to avoid implementing it entirely on my own, if possible. It is so easy to make mistake or overlook something.

Propman

See here for some discussion around this: #274016 – Dwarfish

I did take a look at that discussion. Nothing for .NET (at least free/open source) – Propman

Why would you ever need such a thing? – Chit

It is just one of those things you need to have... – Propman

@CodeInChaos I need one as the client i am work for would prefer not to have swear words on their site as it is based at children. – Barling

Answer 1

What a ******* good question.

(I would have added this as a comment, but I'm a ****)

Update

Ok, here is something that might be a bit more useful:

The above describes a simple swear filter from a list of words using regular expressions.

You could download a list of swear words from here - http://www.noswearing.com/

Konstance

I did stumble upon that link, but it leaves implementation in my hand and by reading the comments, it seemed more on the naive side. I could be wrong. I will give that a try if nothing open-source is available. – Propman

thanks, i finaly found what i was looking for between the closed question or downvoted questions -_-.. – Choppy

Answer 2

albeit not .net specific, here's an open source list of profane words in multiple languages you can use https://github.com/uvasoftware/yara-language-nsfw
