It's so strange that these filtering products block all of RinkWorks instead of just the Dialectizer. While wintermute was here, he told us about how he tried to log in from a public library, and he couldn't get to RinkWorks on account of it being "pornographic."

I still basically despise all filtering software. I might feel differently when I'm a parent, because it's just too easy to *accidentally* run across stuff, never mind find it on purpose, but for me right now there is nothing more annoying than being denied access to something legitimate, especially when a few bad sites still slip through. Getting blocked because RinkWorks is allegedly "pornographic" is like a slap in the face for all my conscientious efforts to make this a good site for families.
