Go to the test page[^], I'm pretty sure it actually is a font and just doing crazy things with ligatures[^].

eg type in some offensive text that it redacts. Now copy/paste it out or use jquery to inspect the textbox ( $("#test-input")[0].value), your original profanity is still there. Alternately pick something where the replacement is a different number of letters than the original. Arrow through it, your cursor won't move evenly between the new letters, but rather in steps based on the size of the original text.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Training a telescope on one’s own belly button will only reveal lint. You like that? You go right on staring at it. I prefer looking at galaxies.
