Removing control characters from a UTF-8 string

Question

Answer 1

This is how I roll:

Regex.Replace(evilWeirdoText, @"[\u0000-\u001F]", string.Empty)

This strips out all the first 31 control characters. The next hex value up from \u001F is \u0020 AKA the space. Everything before space is all the line feed and null nonsense.
