Abstract

The Internet is the most disembedded media as it is the most removed
from face-to-face-communication. In Internet communication we do not have
the limitations of space. There are no borders for circulation and there is
unlimited memory space for content. This dimension of disembedding
constitutes the globalisation of the medium. On the other hand, Internetbased
communication has increased opportunities to secure information in a
manner that has not been available up to now. This project purpose is to
suggest the usage of filtering system as a mean of information filtering in the
Electronic Exchange Board for FTMSK. The traditional filtering mechanism in
the Electronic Exchange Board might not be able to distinguish the offensive
words that have been masked. Hence, this study is conducted to identify
potential techniques can be used to mask the offensive words and a new
textual filtering algorithm will be developed to resolve this problems. Most of
the identified masking techniques can be detected by this new filtering
algorithm. However, it can never successful entirely because people will
always find new ways to mask the offensive words. Therefore, there should
be an authorized person whose job is to monitor and determine which
postings can be allowed and not in Electronic Exchange Board.
