This is why the Muni should just provide the NETWORK and other service providers provide the content.

That wouldn't work with WiFi. A fiber network has virtually unlimited bandwidth; voice, video and internet. WiFi can only handle one ISP.

Still should have to have an opt out by proving you're of legal age and wish to view such content. Otherwise, it's biggotry with a kids face pasted on top.

That way, the Goverment doesn't have to get all involved in censorship/copyright issues and endless lawsuits.

Why is it so hard for people to figure out... sheesh!

Build an awesome network, but stick to the network! Let other service providers and content creators and users do their own thing.

Well, great for you. Pat yourself on the back, or better yet, kick yourself in the butt. If you are at work hacking the system, I hope you get caught, fired and pay a very heft fine.
Why do you believe You have any right to circumvent your work system? You did not pay for nor buy into your employers network, but you feel you should be able do as you please. One very important word for You "IDIOT"

~ sigh ~ when will governmental representatives learn. You can't use tax payer money to fund this network then sensor it. Did they learn NOTHING from the library issues?

Library - filters are on by default but must be removed when requested.

Public funded WiFi: This is a public service, funded by public money, so it must CERTAINLY adhear to the 1st ammentdment right.

How long will it take before this so-called filter is removed?

Ture, and infact at my current Job I created an inhouse way to do so and its even been used officially. We are looking into a new filter which will help filter less or not at all for those that need it but my work around still won't need its approval :P

there is always a way around this sort of blocking ....


Mr Anon

@il.us

I was about to say the Pron stuff was a bit over but then I though that if its govermentially funded then they have to do that for children at least I think, and with the nature of the network less you can garuntee that they aren't kids you have to filter everyone...

Still, boo!

P2P is another animal and I can understand even if personally I'd dislike it.
