Not sure if you know it or not, but words with altered text letters that only logged in forum members can read, which were intended to escape google searches and the eye of the SPLC, et al, are now visible on google.

Just tell Matthew.

How did you figure this out? Does google know what the altered text words mean or just that they exist as typed?

Really I'm not surprised. Anyone monitoring this site can take a few minutes to feed this info into google if their AI hasn't been engineered to pick up on it.

Google didn't pick it up after it was first programmed (roughly 5 years ago?). I just discovered it now when doing a google search on a CathInfo topic, and I was surprised to see the text and apropos threads listed. I don't know how long they've been visible.

It would be easy for Google to do a 1-for-1 substitution on common "characters" that look like normal (roman) letters.
Basically a "lowest hanging fruit" attempt to de-obfuscate common obfuscations. They'd be stupid not to.

ω -> w
etc.

I moved some threads into Members Only. But those threads will be in Google for some time. Oh well, maybe it will drive yet MORE traffic here.
