Paige: This internet search engine is a joke. I'm trying to look stuff up for school, but no matter what I enter, it gives me a bunch of links to porn sites! "Civil War Battlefields"?... porn sites. "Egyptian Water Canals"? ...porn sites. "White house photos"? ... Peter: Actually, I think some of those could be White House photos. Paige: Ok, bad example, but still...

Oy. You have a serious need for a filter. Call Jason in and he’ll fix you right up.

A few years ago my Mother got her first computer and I helped her get it set up and hooked up to the Internet.
6 Months later I was home for Christmas and she asked me to look at her computer because it was slow and not working right.
So I turned it on (with my two school age children near by to help) and within moments I had a dozen porn shots on the screen (particularly rough stuff I might add too). So I scooted the children out of the room and asked my mom what kinds of websites she had been visiting.
She vehemently insisted that she didn’t want that stuff and never asked for it. I told her, truthfully, I believed her but reminded her that if she had caught me with this kind of stuff as a boy she would have grabbed a wooden spoon and a bar of soap.
So I cleaned the computer of virus and spyware and then explained, patiently, to her that when a popup window comes up on her computer the kneejerk reaction should be “NO!”. It turns out that she had been clicking “Yes” everytime she got a popup window and that led to all sorts of spyware and trojans on her poor infested computer.
Moral of the story - Even the most innocent searches can get porn dumped on you if you aren’t careful.

I’m sure he’ll give her a good deal on his Jasonsoft filter. 50 Bucks, and he’ll change the settings back to safe filtering.

The strange thing is that for once I was being serious.
Yeah, yeah, I know: “Rakkav: many words, serious; few words, funny.” Sorry to throw you all off there. :)

The very definition of rule 34 (that porn exists for every conceivable subject).
