work filters FTL

[TA7969]

Thought I finally found a decent gun forum I could browse at work. Unfortunately, most links/pages etc I click on here are deemed "weapon" related by the work filter but a lot load just fine
It would let me read page 1 and 3 of a thread but page 2 was blocked. weird.
Anyway, a little is better than nothing

Thats weird.

If I can I usually use my phone for stuff like this at work.

[TA7969]

I do too but it's much easier to use the computer sitting right in front of me

my work station filter out alot of sights too, also alot of pictures( weapons related,social media). however, i can see this site.

Yeah I've never been on a site/forum that it would randomly block certain links but not others. ARFCOM is blocked completely as are most other mainstream gun sites/forums

Completely blocked at work. Mine will only allow Wikipedia weapon articles. Be happy with what you got I guess... Already got my phone.

It seems some of the providers have stepped up their game lately and widened the net for blocking this category. Barracuda as one example.

We have a pair of Sonicwall NSA E5500 as our HA Paired UTM. Content filtering is pretty robust.

Is it really true that some workplaces screen Facebook and other social media and won't hire you if you're a gun guy? I'm on the job market right now and it's real hard to tell what they're thinking out there.
