its list of interesting (err, forbidden) sites priced at $1,500. Wow! Folks have finally found a way to get paid for looking for porn on the net! :-) Surfwatch doesn't make it's censored list easily available (otherwise it'd probably get pirated, or used as an "interesting sites" index...), but apparently it blocks access to things other than just pornography - does Webster indicate what categories of stuff they're blocking?
I think there's a definite need here. If some obliging soul can "blow the whistle" by posting to the net 1) Surfwatch's list of banned sites, and/or 2) the criteria Surfwatch uses when determining what sites to block, it would certainly be beneficial. At the very least, it would allow everyone to see what sort of information they believe is "harmful to minors". -- frogfarm@yakko.cs.wmich.edu | To ensure ABSOLUTE FREEDOM, take RESPONSIBILITY imschira@nyx10.cs.du.edu | Encrypt!
