        Beyond the Layer7 completely broken with 2.2.x, you'd need a proxy.

          they're also trying to stop torrent https://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=92952.0

          I assume they have a huge issues with data consumption. I'm starting to wonder if they're a wifi hotspot or something.

            With all of the extremes this person is trying to do, it may be better to ask if there is any traffic they want getting through the firewall. I might assume that they only care about HTTP/HTTPS, but even HTTPS may be an issue for them because of filtering. Maybe they should start off with blocking all ports except 80/443.
