(filtering) Again I say not our problem. Stop trying to force us to be the police. We're just a dumb pipe. I'm sure someone has countered that before by saying the gov't says only clean water can be put in your utility/city provided water pipe. There's an obvious physical danger with contaminated water. They say it's the same, but it's not the same, because politicians are technologically retarded. If anything, they should put this on the content providers. You know, the ones that said Net Neutrality was needed so their content can't be blocked.

The legislation is attempting to force ISPs to offer an in-house filtering product. Hopefully the bigger ISPs will fight it off. We have an exemption for the smaller ISPs.

Some random thoughts. If you are going to an HTTPS site, it is all encrypted. If you are attempting to analyze a flow of traffic HTTPS traffic looks the same to us whether it is porn or online banking. Do we also block Bit Torrent? XBox Grand Theft Auto Any game with online chat. Scrub online chat during games? All game servers Twitter Instagram Youtube News outlets Facebook Email Instant messaging Periscope Streaming FTP IRC The lowly ping facility has a space for payload. I could send porn via pings if I wanted. What is defined as harmful content? Medical, artistic, Bible readings? Genesis 19, 29 etc etc. Language, if so what language? Bare shoulders. Knees? Curtains blowing in the breeze. How about what I consider pornographic music lyrics. Do we have to police music. Police Pandora. There are always ways around. For every block there is a proxy or VPN that will get you around it. Filters can give parents a false sense of security. Filters are gimmicks. Snake oil. But we do offer them. Not home grown. They are 3rd party.
