@jaredbusch What do you use for content filtering at your house?

Pi-Hole

So Pi-hole does both ad blocking, and for example, "adult" sites?

Parental oversight.

I recently (December 2017) added a pihole, but that is for ad blocking. I added a porn list for testing prior to implementing at a client last month (March 2018).

No, doesn't block adult sites. Not looking for anything like that at home.

I'm sure you can configure it to do that with an add on or a setting (or manually, of course) but I'm just looking for blocking malicious stuff.

Agree 100 % However, I'd like to also protect my 7 year old on his ipad, from accidentally going somewhere he shouldnt. He only goes where we tell him he can, but I'd like that extra layer of protection.

Haven't found a porn blocker yet that stops https://scrolller.com/nsfw

@jaredbusch

You know about so many more sites than I do, lol.

I have better (worse?) users than you?

[JaredBusch]

Also it is fun to browse the other categories.

Oh, these aren't the ones you are using?

Me? Yes. But no, that is not how I found out about it. That is courtesy of a user and the /nsfw directory.

OK, new project tomorrow. Install Pi-hole finally.

[scottalanmiller]

@jaredbusch on, there is a SFW portion, now I get it.

Cool.

Cool.

And it is not as simple as a regex or something on /nsfw. Because you can click on an image to get to the images tagged as the image you click on.

For example this picture is on /animals

But if I click that title, the URL changes to https://scrolller.com/r/tuckedinkitties

Which is nothing but

Now imagine trying to fight that in the /nsfw section..

Here is how to add porn blocking.

@jaredbusch
Awesome, thanks!

[AdamF]

I had Pi-Hole running for 10 minutes. It's amazing how much is being blocked already.

So, combining the Cloudflare DNS and the pi-hole filter is basically like having a firewall with content filtering?

If so, I just upgraded 2 of my Raspberry Pi's here at work. Might have a new project for home with one of the older R-Pis now.

CloudFlare DNS is just DNS, just like any other DNS. However, their focus is on privacy, and they claim that they will not keep or sell your browsing history. Also, from what the stats say, they are much faster than other big DNS servers like 8.8.8.8

Pi-Hole blocks ads/ad domains, but is also capable of blocking specific sites, or site lists.

I'm using a pihole VM (just set it up a couple of nights ago) pointed at CloudFlare. DNS is nice and snappy, that's for sure!
