Tama, 

Just a very quick suggestion, it might be worth thinking about banned
emojis not just text (just in case you weren¹t - sorry it wasn¹t¹ clear).
I found out in a digital methods workshop (honest - no really honest) that
single aubergine (eggplant) searches are a problem, but double is okayŠ go
figureŠ  If this means nothing to you google it, maybe not at work unless
you have a pass out for sexually explicit materialsŠ I love my job.

Cheers, Ben.
