Hey there. Well as you can see from the title, I have an idea to help with the control of site blocking on the internet. Todays internet site blocking software is really ineffective. When we put on the block, a good amount of clean wanted sites are blocked. Also it gets annoying when we try search for something, but then it turns out to be porn. I have a simple idea to make the blocking software more effective. As we all know, web addresses are composed of .com, .net, .org, or .gov. My idea is to group a certain genre of sites to it's own .(whatever). Let’s say that there is a porno site has the address of http://www.hotsex.com. Since it is a porno site, it would make sense to group it under .xxx. So it would be renamed as http://www.hotsex.xxx. You would do this with all the other porno sites on the internet. Now on the internet blocking software, just set it up so that it blocks .xxx. Now the user wouldn't have to worry about their children being exposed to pornographic material, when they are on the internet. Also, they would not have to worry about accidentally getting on a porno site when doing research. There has to be a flaw in this idea, because its so simple that it had to of been thought of earlier. The only thing I could see having a problem with it, is that grouping the sites would violate the 1st Amendment-Freedom of Speech. For example, people might argue that child porn is a form of art. Besides this I do not see any other problems with the idea. Now since we are all knowledgeable in different areas, I was wondering if you could see any other flaws with this site blocking method? Thanks in advance.
