OMG!!! Those Naughty PPL at DMOZ...

[Vin DSL]

I've been porting a DMOZ interface for PHP-Nuke for a while now. This has been quite a project, but highly popular on my site.

I was watching visitors the other night - spying on them actually - and holy crap!!! DMOZ is loaded with, shall we say, adult content. Oh, alright, porno...

There it was, on my site - 1000's of links to perv sites, with thumbnails.

Here's the deal... I can keep them from doing searches for adult sites, and I can stop the links from displaying for adult categories, but I need a list of words they might use to do such searches.

I'm not into that whole swinging sex scene, so I don't know what words to block in the searches. I added all the words that come out of my filthy mouth, but I don't have a very large vocabulary when it comes to groupsex and so forth.

Anybody know where I can get such a list?

Couldn't you just block the return of anything from /Adult categories. I know that by default the DMOZ search doesn't return hits from the Adult category, nor is it displayed on the home page. Maybe you could implement something similar.

many popular bulliten boards (such as YaBB) come with nice long censor lists, and while they don't have everything, there are quite a few in there.

LoL! Oh, yeah? Go do a search for 'xxx'...

EDIT: http://search.dmoz.org/cgi-bin/search?search=xxx

This is a search using the default DMOZ search engine. Now, imagine that with thumbnails...

Good idea!

I don't want you to think I'm being weird or prudish, but I have a lot of ppl watching my site, for content, because of 'union animous', e.g. 'anti-union animus'. I don't need the headache...

OK, I stand corrected... I thought that normal searches blocked adult content, but I guess I'm wrong. Regardless, though, all of the "dirty" content is still listed in the Adult category, so you could filter the results and remove anything in that category. It might take a little work, but it wouldn't be impossible.

Yeah, the code's no problem...

    $dirtywords = array(
        "dirt1",
        "dirt2",
        "dirt3",
        "et cetera");

    $browse = cleanBrowse($HTTP_GET_VARS["browse"]);
    $ver = $HTTP_GET_VARS["ver"];

    $searchstring = $HTTP_POST_VARS["search"];
    if($searchstring == "") $searchstring = $HTTP_GET_VARS["search"];
    $searchstring = cleanSearch($searchstring);
    
    $start = intval($HTTP_GET_VARS["start"]);
    $morecat = htmlspecialchars($HTTP_GET_VARS["morecat"]);

    if( $browse != "") {
        $catarr = explode("/", $browse);
        $i=0;
        while($catarr[$i] == "") $i++;
        if(strtolower($catarr[$i]) == "adult") {
            include("includes/blocked.php");
            die();
        }
    } else if($searchstring != "") {

        if(in_array(strtolower($searchstring), $dirtywords)) {
            include("includes/blocked.php");
            die();
        }
    }

I'm just having trouble thinking of dirty words...

[Ron]

Here's a quick thought---
capture the requests and monitor what categories come back, and then add those keywords to your list.

Then you can manually remove the fluff words (e.g. and, big, Vin DSL, etc.) and add the rest to your blocks.

But don't forget you need to be extra careful with dual meaning words, like ####, ####, and ESPECIALLY #### ## ########## ### ### !!!!

Name every dirty word you can think of? Hehe, we played this game on my site months ago. Enjoy.

Just an idea:

Go to Google, make a search with words you do know, click on the first few results and copy all the words in KEYWORDS meta tag.

You can even write a PHP script that would do it automatically
