ScrubIT

March 1, 2007

I just heard about ScrubIT (hat tip to Andrew Mitry). It is a clever way of blocking porn and filtering other types of bad content. You basically just change your DNS settings to point at their servers and you are all done. I was planning to implement DansGuardian for Crossroads sometime this year, but I think I’ll give this a try first. It took me less than five minutes to set it up on my home DLink router and now all my computers are clean.

Yes, I know, it’s easy to circumvent if you know what you are doing, but I don’t think that will be a problem in the church office. ;)
