Alright, perhaps I was a bit contentious in my original post. I still think an unabridged BoingBoing is best, principally for its ability to expose you to the unexpected. However I'm willing to grant that maybe the filter isn't necessarily the most evil technology since the invention of anthrax.

Also, I guess it has the editor's approval, and if it forever eliminates the tiresome ".... is ruining BoingBoing" type comments then it's totally worth it.
