The term firewall has seen limited use since the late 1980s to describe
a device to block unwanted network traffic while allowing other traffic
to pass. The first published description of a "modern" firewall
including use of that name was in 'Practical Unix Security' written in
1990 and published in 1991. The first description of a firewall,
although not by that name, was also in 1990, in a paper by Bill
Cheswick. Children's Internet Protection Act

Here you can find information for protecting your children on the
Internet. There are many programs that allow the parents to monitor
their children. A wide use of Perversion, andm child pornography have
grown considerably and today we have laws adopted to protect them from
intruders
