@adorfer@9er it’s not though, all of our schools website blocking is done through DNS (and yes I've tested), the network blocks all port 53 traffic unless it's to a school DNS server (and they break all the time I hate it so much)
@wilbur@adorfer I've made my piece with DNS blocking for schools. Teachers/officials want a way to be legally safe and more important: safe from angry parents. Our service had pretty much 100% uptime over the last few years. We had very very few cases of overblocking. The lists come from a commercial service, so it didn't need any work once it was deployed. Sure, there's usually a way to bypass it, but if someone is smart enough to do that, they could also find other ways to watch porn...
