Lots of mail re the blocking of websites. It’s not just my own, but NRO, too. A reader writes:

A year or so ago, I purchased Net Nanny for my home PC. It blocked NRO’s “The Corner”, due to “some hate content”. So, for fun, I went to Al Jazeera dot com, and of course it was NOT blocked. I emailed support, pointing out the execution videos pass their filter, but not NRO. They very explained that they didn’t support blocking of Arabic language sites, which didn’t really answer my question, of course. When pressed, they refused to identify which content on NRO was “hate”. In the end, they refunded my money rather than answer my question.

So a jihadist snuff video is perfectly safe for your kids. But Jonah’s objections to the New Deal? Whoa, can’t let them get anywhere near that. That pretty much confirms my suspicion that “Net Nanny” and the like are not child-friendly filtering services but just the twilight west’s usual self-loathing limp-wristed politically-correct illiterate nitwits.

Whoops, I seem to have just upped the “hate content.”
