Is the USGS too small to require firewalls that block obviously NSFW websites? At my workplace, going to such sites bring up a page saying the request was blocked before it left the corporate network.
The other side Ive seen is "we're all adults, we don't need any filters here" coming from the higher ups. from my experiences, that usually means someone with significant say wants to look at that shit, or more rarely, feels that filters aren't a good use of ITs time.
just CYA on everything in those situations because it usually will end with fingers pointed at IT
Also,surprised at the amount of responses on HN today that presume details....
This is what I was thinking of when I said "dealing with false positives"; those services make mistakes, and haven't hit every site.
