                And then there are the really problematic school
districts where the staff seems to have "gone native"

                        I like the description of our precious little
savages, I mean children, it describes them pretty good.  I know of
several schools that depend upon blacklist/whitelist methods of
filtering and don't seem to have a problem with it.  But, those are also
the same districts that have enough staffing to be updating those lists
daily and supervising the savages, I mean children, constantly while
they are using the computers.

                         

                        I look at it this way, SurfControl is expensive,
but far cheaper than the payroll needed for all those extra people to do
the manual screening, and far-far cheaper than the lawsuits that would
be generated as a result of letting little savages in heat do
unsupervised browsing.

                        That's true, when you have professional
malicious users like the little savages in our public schools, you have
to go with Websense or SurfControl or some similar content filtering
solution that updates it's database everyday.

                                You can go the black-list route, but
knowing the kids we have here they will find ways around your black-list
in a matter of minutes.  Your best bet is a program similar to
SurfControl, that updates their listing of websites every day.
