Morphology

unsanitized = sanitized (semi-transparent) = un + sanitize + ed

Morphologically formed by adding 'un-' to 'sanitized'; the structure is clear even when the verb is used metaphorically.

Etymology

Unsanitized is built from un- + sanitize, with sanitize linked to the Latin sanus meaning 'healthy' and to words like sanitation. Just as sanitizing removes germs, sanitizing information means removing private or harmful parts, so unsanitized information still has those parts and is not safe to share.
