Why are web searches filtered?

I’m not under 13 and nobody else is going to read my search and get offended, so I don’t understand why they are filtered. Can an admin explain this?

Can not search filtered usernames

If you search a player’s username that is filtered it won’t turn up: [image] I was searching up the user Ogbobbyjohnson6789, but I couldn’t get to profile because it kept on censoring his username. Ik there’s a function for it, but I usually go to a player’s profile to grab their UserId. Ended up just google searching their username: https://www.roblox.com/users/151271533/profile

Search terms are being filtered

I’m trying to search for famfamfam icons in the catalog to try and avoid downloading the whole thing. The problem is, the filter removes this possibility by filtering the search terms. [image] What is the purpose of filtering something that is client-side? It’s not like saving data where it is easy for someone younger to get on after the fact and see what was written. Not to mention usernames. What gives?
