      @seanpruitt:

      So I'm blocking porn, that's great! But the problem I'm running into now is I can't watch any howto videos on youtube because the host is forcing restricted mode. Is there a way to only for kids into restricted mode vs the entire network?

      The easiest way is to get another AP for the kids and put it on a separate interface/subnet. Then just apply all of this stuff to that subnet only.
      A work around would be to connect to a VPN on the computer you are using (unless you are effectively blocking VPN IP's with a list).

        @someuser123:

        future build of pfblockerng will have option to use shallalist/UT1/squidblacklist

        @BBcan177 is working on it, this feature is in beta right now, i personally don't feel the need of squidguard anymore.

        Hi,

        from which build on the option shallalist will be available in pfblockerng? I can not find it in the current version (2.1.2 - under pfSense 2.4.0 release).

        Regards

            Enable the "TLD" option… Click on the blue infoblock icon for more details about TLD...

              I've found over the years that trying to block porn is a losing battle.  Short of white listing or unplugging the internet…

                      You will need to enable the "TLD" option, otherwise it will only block the domain that is listed in the Feed, and not block all Sub-domains.

                      A Force Reload - DNSBL will need to be run for it to take effect.

                            Blocking porn is really difficult with DNSBL… There are millions of domains ....

                            This you can do:

                            Enable the TLD option, and add "xxx" to the TLD Blacklist customlist.... Then it will block any domain in the "xxx" TLD...

                            In EasyList, there are Adult Popups that are blocked, but that just removes the Adult AD popups, and not the Adult sites themselves...

                            A Proxy will be the best option to filter that type of content... SquidBlacklist/UT1 have some Adult categories which list quite a few Adult domains... Its not foolproof either.... Just be careful about MITM SSL issues...
                            I would recommend OpenDNS. By the way, on Google you can do this: http://www.google.com/preferences.
