it was only a matter of time

LiveJournal is now blocked at work. It's full of porn, you know. Or not, but reason rarely enters the blockage decisions.

LJ was blocked (briefly) at my workplace by our CIPA nanny-filters. It seems to me that it's only a matter of time before the Administration decides to block LJ and its ilk, thanks to the proposed DOPA....

BUMMER!!!

It's been blocked at my work for ages under the category "chat". I can't really argue with that...

But it is full of porn.

That's too bad, though- being blocked out of lj would drive me nuts.

Condolences. It's still blocked at my work too. It's very annoying.

I suspect that a rule-book slowdown at work is not appropriate.

Bummer. Meanwhile, you may want to put this post behind a lock.

I concur.

I'm undecided. I haven't said anything that's untrue. Perhaps, technically, I've said something bad about my employer; hmm.

The explanation on the block notice (frequently strange, in my experience) was "provocative attire". Bill Walsh's language site, The Slot, is porn according to them.

Given how it was tagged, I thought you might have forgotten to lock it.

It's only a matter of time before it is blocked here, I'm sure. More and more sites are coming up that way.

And as I keep saying, the sad part is that the network administrators can only block the sites because I wrote the instructions telling them how to do it.
