So, does this mean AP users will still be censored when chatting with other ap users? If I may offer a suggestion; why not adopt a chat tool that censors chat only for non-ap users, and blocks "explicit" chat messages for non-ap users? (I would say to not censor for ages 18+ but it's much easier to lie about your age than it is to take a card to purchase AP, so i could at least understand that aspect)
Personally, I would advocate for no censorship, because I believe parents should monitor their children instead of relying on a tech company to protect them, but that's just me. :/
