I'm That guy. Not for BA but for another place. I run the blocking software for my company. I get to enforce the rules handed down from above. If the company decides they are going to use xyz for blocking and filtering their internet connection, I'm the guy that makes it all work.
Wait.. it's the Company's internet connection? It's the Company's computer system? It's the Company that gets sued if the wrong stuff comes up?
I'm lucky. I use the Smartfilter software. It works. Simple as that. Does it sometimes block sites that should not be blocked? Yes it does. But the company wants it running. Here it's a matter of asking me to unblock the site. I'll probably do it since I'm Personally against censorship. But Airports, Malls, and other Commercial buildings are not PUBLIC. If you want and expect unfiltered internet access then go to a PUBLIC Library. They were able to force the US govenrment (Under Bill Clinton) to back off of the CIPA requirements for filtering All internet in governmentally funded organizations.
Where to start.
