Even if this were a joke, I’d send them money just for thinking seriously about it.
But guess what. It is not a joke.
The concept behind the StupidFilter Project originated during a conversation between Gabriel Ortiz and Paul Starr. StupidFilter was conceived out of necessity. Too long have we suffered in silence under the tyranny of idiocy. In the beginning, the internet was a place where one could communicate intelligently with similarly erudite people. Then, Eternal September hit and we were lost in the noise. The advent of user-driven web content has compounded the matter yet further, straining our tolerance to the breaking point.It’s time to fight back.
The solution we’re creating is simple: an open-source filter software that can detect rampant stupidity in written English.
