Is There Any Way to Get ICS Voice to Text to Stop Censoring Me?

If I want to drop the F bomb in a text message, I think it is anti-american for Google to censor me on a private communication on my own freaking phone. Yet, in the voice to text, they censor me. Is there any way to override it without having to manually type it in?

Why would that be anti-American?

Un-American of Google? Probably.

Irresponsible of you? Probably also.

What if you dropped the F-bomb accidentally in a text to your boss? Or had an auto-correct malfunction in a text to Granny?

Freedom salted with responsibility (not regulation) is the hallmark of our free society. At least Google gave you the tools to deregulate the device. But just because you CAN do something, doesn't mean you SHOULD do something.

(thus concludes your talking to from Granny) :D

Thank you, thank you, oh thank you! The censoring was driving me insane. And of course it is un-American to censor profanity - Freedom of Speech, don't you know! As for accidentally sending profanity-laced texts, what kind of lazy ***** sends a text without reading it first?

Freedom of speech!! They should have the option to censor, but it should be disabled by default, and you can enable it if you want to.
