A Foul Language Filter for Television and Movies

Not that Hyehudi endorses watching movies or TV, but if any of our readers, um, know anyone who, well…

Anyway, check out the TVGuardian LT device here…

An excerpt from the sales copy:

The TVGuardian automatically detects and filters profanity and other offensive phrases while you watch movies or television shows. TVGuardian is like a smart remote control for your TV that automatically mutes foul language! You teach your children not to use that language. What message does allowing an unprotected TV in your home send? TVGuardian helps reinforce the values you’re teaching.

The TVGuardian monitors the hidden closed-captioning signal and compares those words to its database of offensive words and phrases. When an offensive word is detected it mutes the sound for the sentence.

I can’t testify as to the product.

Now, if only there were clean versions of certain books…
