"Sony PlayStation Online delivers one of the hottest online gaming environments on the market today...Sony recognizes that the online world is also full of challenges, and crowded with people at all age ranges and personal beliefs."
"Subscribers within Sony PlayStation's Online arena are open to language and content that may not be suitable for all players. To combat the risk of exposing customers to offensive language and content, the company turned to Teragram to build a "vulgarity filter." Whether playing SOCOM III, Ratchet and Clank...Sony wants to ensure that all players have a fun, but also appropriate, gaming experience."
"Players who subscribe to PlayStation Online must enroll and log-in when playing. These players then have a forum to chat and instant message one another. At these critical stages of open communication, offensive language and slang could be used. To prevent this Sony runs Teragram's vulgarity software on each of its thousands of servers around the world. Teragram's technology can monitor and filter out offensive content in microseconds, enforcing a clean yet extremely fast user experience..."
"...Sony required a technology that could be as flexible as the cultural issues of the players on the platforms. Teragram's multilingual dictionaries offer the scaleability and flexibility needed by Sony to continually update and add slang words to its servers."
