Help

hi :smiley: have raspberry on my network - works very well blocking ads :+1:

have my children accessing my internet (teenage and their friends).
is there anyway of blocking porn sites?, i know it wont stop all of them as new ones pop up every day.

i would also like to block nakedness but too many legit sites are blocked with parental controls for no good reason - so i would think this is impossible?

last question - stage 4 (common whitelisting) he says "false positives" would you recommend running this? as it works great for me without it

There are public block lists that are intended to block porn sites, although none of them will be 100% effective.

You can also use regular expressions in Pi-hole to block domains containing keywords normally associated with porn sites.

There are also filtered DNS services that provide "family friendly" filtering. Using one of these filtered services as the upstream DNS server for Pi-hole may meet your needs. OpenDNS is one.
