Profanity Filter for Amazon Prime: Making Streaming Foul Language Free
Profanity Filtering on Amazon Prime
Amazon has grown into offering services in nearly every category, with Prime Video being one of the biggest streaming platforms. From early-release rentals to original programming, Amazon is a giant for entertainment. As most families use Amazon for all sorts of shopping and perhaps even their main source of movies and television, what tools does it offer to help parents combat access to inappropriate material or filter profanity and offensive language?
Can You Censor Language on Amazon Prime?
Prime offers numerous channels and has partnered with several production companies, giving them access to Showtime, AMC, sports channels, and a host of others.. That amount of variety and access means that a profanity filter for Amazon Prime is nearly impossible.
The legalities involved with removing explicit content from a show or movie are complex and editing it is what got the filtering service VidAngel into trouble. Many users wanting a profanity filter and the ability to monitor what words or scenes their kids have access to is a popular remark on the help threads on Amazon, but currently, there isn’t that option available for them. The only tool available on Prime itself is viewing restrictions, essentially categorizing movies and shows by age groups.
Why Does Amazon Prime Censor Curse Words?
It’s easy to assume Amazon has profanity filters or filters profanity automatically, many shows have offensive words bleeped out or edited out entirely. While many parents are asking Prime for tools to filter offensive scenes and language out, there are as many people asking why shows are edited.
There is a similar complaint about Hulu, that many shows and movies run as if on cable television and there is a reason for that. Studios and production companies send streaming platforms the version they want to show, and many of them have edited-for-TV versions on hand or want to catch a larger audience by meeting the requirements for a lower MPAA rating. In either case, the end result is the same: some shows and movies are featured on Amazon with offensive language already removed.
Third-Party Solutions for Amazon Prime Video
It may be a frustrating answer to hear, that Amazon streaming doesn’t offer any type of profanity filters for their content, but that doesn’t mean there aren’t third-party profanity filter tools parents can use to help protect their children from inappropriate material.
