    This is the FB marketplace experience. People ask stupid questions instead of reading what is on the description or looking at the pictures.









  • I’m pointing out that this service would fulfill a need for people who want to block porn but don’t know the technical solutions to do. The average person isn’t willing to look into it.

    The problem you have with the caricature of my comment is that this service would block all the LGBT sites as well. Another service that just provides porn content filtering at the network layer would be my suggestion.

    100% the outlier opinion here.

    I think they found a market for the average person who is concerned about content online. I spent a lot of time trying to setup content filters to go cold turkey on a port addiction. I setup a pi.hole with some porn list and subscribe to a private DNS service for my phone. All of this is as an alternative to Covenant Eyes that took up to much resources and is very creepy to use.

    For the average person, who doesn’t know what DNS is, a network level filter on the internet is exactly what they want for their family. I think it’s a good guardrail for a teenager. But it doesn’t remove a parent’s responsibility. I’m also ignoring the non-porn content filtering that is absolutely going to get caught be their filters, intentionally or not.
