For the best protection against the rapidly growing number of
adult sites and pages
you need a filter that can block adult sites without having to
find them first. Two
Filters that will do that is:
CyberSentinel
- Blocks without a filter list
Kidsnet -
Only allows access to predefined "safe" sites - All others are blocked.
