@bazzacollins Non issue until it's your site being filtered out by Symantec, at least.
For once, I vaguely agree with @claire4devizes. Overblocking is a non-issue. Problem is these filters don't work. http://www.pcpro.co.uk/news/security/386785/perry-isp-filter-overblocking-reports-are-fanciful …

@njkobie If you really wanted to see a site, you'd add it to the allowed list. Or switch the filter off. -
@bazzacollins Fine, if you're an adult and can do so. Less fine if you're a kid and want to, say, see a sex education site, or Samaritans. -
@njkobie Have any of those mainstream filters snagged a sex education site or The Samaritans? -
@bazzacollins O2's did: http://www.independent.co.uk/life-style/gadgets-and-tech/news/o2-changes-porn-filterafter-charity-sites-blocked-9023209.html … Though, to be fair, that's mobile and not broadband. Uses Symantec, though. -
@njkobie Fair enough. Although they removed the blocks right away, by the sound of it. -
@bazzacollins Yup, once they were told. And then took down their blocked-URL search tool. *sigh* Bit of transparency's all I ask.
