And when I saw awesome... it's awesome to build awareness, awe-inspiring that computers/people can create these filters, and awesome as in scary that we are being limited in our exposure by some outside entity.

Of course, if you know you're being filtered, you can bypass the filter by searching directly for what they are filtering out!
