Step 1: Block content categories for this screening group

After initiating the set up for Content Screening, the Block Content Categories for This Screening Group page opens. Use this page to set up the blocked content category for Screening Group 1.

Content categories

To make it easier to block undesirable content, a number of content categories have been developed. Professional researchers working with a third-party maintain a database of Web site addresses that fall under specified content categories. In addition, you can use the blocked list and approved list features of the content screening application to manually block or permit specific sites that may or may not fall under the categories outlined below.

Any online content that contains more than 3 instances in 100 messages or any easily accessible pages with graphics, text or audio that fall within the definition of the categories shown below are considered sufficient to place the source site in that category. Internet sites that contain information or software programs designed to hack into filtering software are added to the database in all categories.

Note: BT Openworld has used what we believe to be reasonable means to identify and categorize Web sites, but cannot guarantee the accuracy or completeness of our screens and assumes no responsibility for errors or omissions.

The following types of content are filtered by each category:

•Sexually Explicit

Note: Sites regarding sexual health, breast cancer, or sexually transmitted diseases (except in graphic examples) are not blocked. In addition, sites containing nudity or partial nudity of a non-prurient nature are not blocked (for example, Web sites for publications such as National Geographic or Smithsonian magazine or sites hosted by museums such as the Guggenheim, the Louvre, or the Museum of Modern Art.)

•Drugs/Alcohol
