IIRC, Federal law (in the US, of course) *MANDATES*
blocking for sites (libraries and schools) that
receive Federal funding.  Factual correction
appreciated; most of my links to this topic are on my

Yet *another* reason that the State and Big Brother do
not belong at the reins of the educational system,
beyond setting testing standards.

Cheers,
