In recent days I've found myself perusing the electric Internet through the eyes of a rather prudish WebSense device. The policy that has been deployed is as draconian as I've witnessed in a real World environment but some things are more than odd. For example...
I wanted to refer to a friend's posting on his blog. Trying to visit http://clintspot.blogspot.com/ fairly predictably redirected me to a page saying that "personal and social networking" sites were disallowed.
With my tutting out loud, a colleague said he thought I was "doing it wrong" as he was able to reach my (this) blog from his work PC. A vigorous investigation was immediately kicked off.
Indeed this blog is available via the filter. Clint's blog is so far the only blogspot.com site I've been unable to reach. Random sites such as http://clint.blogspot.com/ and http://spot.blogspot.com/ are rendered without complaint.
So, what's up with http://clintspot.blogspot.com/? Am I missing something? Or perhaps WebSense can't cope with the NZ accent... :-)
