    Question Web Filtering Software

    Hey Orgahs, my boy is finally getting old enough that he's poking around the interwebs. I guess it's time to put up some safeguards, so that he doesn't get exposed to Lemon Party or pics of three-ways between Louis, Strike and DevDave. (At least not until he's old enough to appreciate it.)

    Anyway, do any parents/sysadmins on this board have experience with filtering software? Here's a roundup from this year. I guess NetNanny gets the best marks.

    Thoughts? Experiences? Ideas?

    Do any orgahs have any experience with this sort of software? Pretty please with a cherry and whipped cream on top?

    No experience, but a few things:

    1) Creepy.
    2) Look at your router software. There's probably white/blacklisting/filtering that can be done there. Plus junior presumably does not have easy access to the config screens.
    3) Creepy.

    So wait, is Lemon Party, my desire to do some net nannying, or the DevDave/Louis/Strike three-way the creepy thing?

    Lemon party and net nannying are the creepy ones. What DevDave/Louis and/or Strike get up to is at most merely disturbing.

    Just get the lemurling on 4chan already. If he can't surf for pr0n at home, he'll just do it at a friend's.

    Is the plan for him to surf on your boxen, or is he getting a dedicated PC for himself?
