Re: this sounds like an excellent idea

It was trivial for me to beat my high school's internet filter using a proxy server running on my home computer, and since nobody else knew about my proxy, it never got blocked, and I could change my IP address any time if it ever did get blocked.
Any filter would be easy to break with a proxy or VPN connection.

maybe then politician will realize how ineffective filters, but that's being overly optimistic for some politicians out there. hopefully they won't claim that the filters need to be more complex, thus more wasted money on the part of the ISPs and slower total throughput.
