Net Nanny™ 6.5 New Features

Profanity Masking Feature

Profanity Masking (@#$!)

As with YouTube.com, there are many websites that permit user’s to leave feedback or comments directly on each page. Unruly users will often post inappropriate or profane comments which can manipulate how your web filter categorizes that webpage.

Using secure proxies (example: UltraSurf) is the number one method used by tech-savvy teens to circumvent desktop filters. This includes proxies, secure proxies, and local host proxies or application proxies.
