[[Shadowtalk]] term for the situation where a censor (especially an automated [[worldnet]] censor) rejects something and you can't immediately figure out why. Famous examples include the [[Plutocrat]]s attempt to name their planet Pluto (which was decreed "Not a valid name"), or certain popular music forums refusing to allow chat about group [[Nonsensemen]] (because it contains the substring 'semen' and could therefore be unsuitable for discussion in a forum which allows minors to participate).

Among [[shadownet]] users, as well as on other online fora (where it may actually be necessary to get around filters), it has become common to replace unexpected profanity with "PLUTO", for example referring to a certain band as "NonsenPLUTO".
