Hard coding (also hard-coding or hardcoding) is the software development practice of embedding data directly into the source code of a program or other executable object, as opposed to obtaining the data from external sources or generating it at runtime.
Hardcoding has nothing to do with whether or not the filter can be disabled. It is about how the filter is implemented (comparing against a string in the code, as opposed to a string loaded from config file or database).
