I like the sound of it but .....

If they can filter all of it out they will always come up with new ways to break the filter and what if it filters out websites that are legitimate. Thats always going to be an issue.

netzero.net email address I had filtered out email that was legit and I even put it in my do not block list the sender and it still never made it to my inbox.

So even with the best intentions things screw up.

I am against porn but there are those who like it so at least I have a choice not to watch it.

Google does a good job blocking it out with there filters I have never had a problem as of yet.

Hopefully it stays that way.

I say kudos for those trying to give users and families the options but I do add caution that it can also bite you back and deny you to legit sites.
