[link to it] 24Aug04 : smartfilter not so smart

Cardiff libraries [in Wales, in the UK] finds that patrons can not get to the web page for the city's Mardi Gras event because SmartFilter -- the same filter mandated in all of Georgia's schools and libraries -- thinks that the site is pornography. The site URL does have the word "gay" in it, though the page itself is completely family friendly. Librarian.net is characterized as "politics/opinion" by the newer SmartFilter and "politics/religion" by the older version. Check your own URL. [infothought]
