This is a sad Twitter message. And he can't even read these messages right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SirPsycho Posted October 28, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 28, 2009 every now and then they will close some sites considered forums or blogs. I lost STT and WERA first . I am keeping my fingers crossed I don't loose Desmohio or ThumperTalk. Nick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

InyaAzz Posted October 28, 2009 Report Share Posted October 28, 2009 If his proxy server or content filter is worth it's weight, it will be blocking anonymizers and proxies as well. I know I do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Casper Posted October 28, 2009 Report Share Posted October 28, 2009 If his proxy server or content filter is worth it's weight, it will be blocking anonymizers and proxies as well. I know I do. You can only block the ones you know about. There are thousands of new ones each day, which is why I post the Google search links. I always used to just setup a RDP box at my house, remote into it, and browse from it. thaaaat sucks.it's one of the negatives about a forum that allows swearing and pron.Not negative to me, however. Actually, the swearing and porn have nothing to do with it. A lot of employers block forums that aren't related to work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SirPsycho Posted October 28, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 28, 2009 I just checked out the new arcade ....Shit....I think there might be a new king of the arcade sometime soon.Nick I will try some other ways in I bet they will be blocked. i hope Craigslist doesn't get blockednick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Casper Posted October 28, 2009 Report Share Posted October 28, 2009 Maybe not in this case, but it could be another trigger for the web filter.The porn could be if it were hosted here, which it's not. So when you visit any of the threads in the NWS section, those pictures are hosted on other sites, so those sites could get blocked. That's why we have a lot of instances where from work you won't be able to see some pictures. That's because the sites hosting those pictures have been blocked. As for swearing, usually only parental filters block sites with swearing. I don't know of any employers that do. I know if you blocked sites with swearing I wouldn't be able to do my job. All the IT forums have swearing. Fuck, I swear a LOT. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InyaAzz Posted October 28, 2009 Report Share Posted October 28, 2009 You can only block the ones you know about. There are thousands of new ones each day, which is why I post the Google search links. That's what a filtering service subscription is for. Instant updates so I don't have to. Thank you, SmartFilter.You are correct in that if the site has not been categorized yet, it won't get blocked. But alas, there are ways to block it by inspecting the content of the page (Vontu). It all depends on the company's policy and how far they want to go. I happen to work where we get audited year round and they are very anal about where the employees surf.Same as you...I RDP back home when I want to add a new torrent to my list or browse somewhere I know will be blocked. Thankfully, OR isn't on that list. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
