I got blocked from viewing this website, its called www.bookshelfporn.com and you know what it is ? It’s a website showing really cool book shelves. Why does this site get blocked? Because people are stupid. You can blame any number of things, but filters and programs controlling your access to he internet are controls by people, that is an undeniable fact.

You think its bad at your company ? Try getting to website in a school. At my children’s school they have full internet blocking on YouTube and Images from Google search. So if you want to watch a John F. Kennedy speech, you can’t do it at school. You need to view it in the privacy of you home with the windows drawn. You want an image of a flower or a flash game that helps you with your capitals of the United States test? Once again, don’t expect to do that at school either.

I found out if only takes one person to complain to get something added to a school district internet blocking mechanism, I called to get the School’s district site on the list. I didn’t get a call back.

Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it. If you can’t learn about the past, we are doomed.

Sigh
