Websense blocked www.appleinsider.com for me today at work putting it under the category of "sex". WTF?

    Reminds me of that radio skit about "Dickin's Cider".

    PM me if you'd like me to email you a copy (or at least tell me a better way to share it) - so very, very funny.

    There are some threads here that have the words "sex" or "porn" or something similar in them that could have caused your filter to block AI. Also, there are some threads, the post your desktop thread comes to mind right away, that have some "questionable" material in them. Sorry that you get shafted though. Down with censorship!!!

    I think we should blame Mr Danger in the "I'd hit it thread". We can only wonder what his mother must think

    My work uses WebSense too, but I don't get blocked.
