      Randomly chosen. This does seem to be buzz word compliant for what the OP wants.

        @jwj Ok no problem in that but as an administrator you have to be able to separate you moral from the technical aspects of a question. I think this forum is for techical aspects of pfsense am I right? Your personal opinion about the moral aspects is not relevant and if you are an administrator you sould know that. I guess you job is to moderate about tech not philosophy.

        Have a good day and get yourself together bro if you want to moderte you need to separate your beliefs from your knowledge.

            A lot of people and company do that, but it’s always suspicious to me because that’s when your DNS flows through them.
            I like to be relatively independent....

            Think of the AVAST scandal = the "real website feature "and sold the collected IPs
            Well, there is privacy too.

              It was an interesting conversation, we look forward to seeing the results again if you feel like ...

              Have a good day. 😉

                @DaddyGo Doesn't matter. He just wants a quick, easy, answer to his question. He can figure out what service he wants to dump money into and then spend all the rest of his time trying to play wack-a-mole for content he finds unacceptable. The internet is unacceptable to everyone in some way. Go off the grid is the only way to avoid that reality.

                  That's a fact, but as a sysadmin we always have to meet a little bit for everyone.
                  I just have to say it's hard ...😉

                    @DaddyGo Do you think, reading between the lines, that he would be better with a tightly curated whitelist? Might be the straightest line to what will be an imperfect solution no matter what.

                      You see it's possible that it would work better ...
                      To hide everything and then just let what you want to be visible ...

                      but this cannot be applied to Youtube internal content, so it can only reduce the headache...

                      let’s not forget also have a lot of serious content on Youtube (books, science, IT, etc.)

                        @DaddyGo Yeah, he's going to have to give up on youtube, at least for the youngest demographic in his user population. 5 year olds don't contextualize things. For the older ones he can't avoid the non-technical issues. It's a fools folly to think he can.

                        He could also spend money on end-point filtering and just not even try to do it at the network level. If he is determined to spend money he could spend a lot of it doing that.

                          It can't go perfectly for anyone 😉
