10. Laughable
You think you can just sidestep the argument with a pointless "strawman" claim? And you call that a fact?

And no, there was no nudity in Rugrats. You saw some child's animated butt and a sumo wrestler. That's why I went on a tangent - because you reasoning for needing this device is absurd, and more legally speaking, not a compelling enough public interest to justify altering someone else's intellectual property for a profit. Studios allowing "clean" remakes of someone's work is one thing. Taking the option completely out of EVERYONE who has intellectual property interests by creating a machine that automatically censors is a clear case of someone trying to profit off of tainting someone else's creativity. THAT is the thread - it is not about authorized re-makes of the DVDs as you seem to keep trying to push.
