CA Parental Control Software Blocks FR as HATE site but allows DU site to go through
Computer Associates Security Center | 02/26/2010

Posted on 02/26/2010 4:03:48 PM PST by SeekAndFind

Folks and Friends at Free Republic

I just wanted to inform you that one of the computers I have at home has COMPUTER ASSOCIATES' SECURITY CENTER installed on it as part of the package I have with my recent Internet and cable service provider -- CABLEVISION.

This is the CA SECURITY CENTER VERSION 4.0.0.205

Now, everytime I try to access FR on this computer, it blocks me with the following reason :

URL: http://www.freerepublic.com/perl/go-button For the following reason: based on the category Category: Hate

I have to override it by entering an administrative password to temporarily allow the FR site to go through my browser.

Out of curiosity, I tried going to the DEMOCRATIC UNDERGROUND site and lo and behold, the CA Parental Control software ALLOWED the site with no problems.

Just wanted you people to be aware of this double standard.

Well, that’s nice.

christianhomeschoolmommaof3 as attacked for something she did not say. but that someone made up about her and then attacked her for.

We provided the evidence in the form of links to refute the false accusations.

If you wish to consider that *hate*, then that’s your prerogative, nobody can stop you, but it is not *hate* to provide the truth and reveal lies.

Not only are they claiming that there is no profanity but if you have seen profanity you must be from the DU.

Nothing like a well reasoned argument. /roll eyes

So you signed up today to lecture me on decorum? All I did was correct a mistaken post and I was basically called a liar and a troll from the DU. I provided evidence that I was not lying and invited the the others to view my posting history to prove that I had a consistent conservative stance and that I was not a troll. I have seen a increase of profanity on this site over the last year and since the rules say no posting profanity then I guess I have a right to speak out against it.

BTW, my comments and the resulting “rabblerousing” had NOTHING to do with FR being labelled a hate site by CA. I had to do with ONE persons comment that there was no profanity on FR. All I did was correct that statement.

This was Ex-DemCO’s one and only post. He signed up just to lecture us I guess.

There is more hate demonstrated in either racism or lying about someone and then attacking them based on the lies you made up about them, than any swear words.

Sounds like evolutionists to me.

Any chance that Ex-DemCO was just a finger puppet created by whatisthetruth to use as a “supporter?” I noticed “twink” at post 394 seemed a bit odd.

whatisthetruth strikes me as the type who would sit around talking to imaginary friends...

No, christian momma, you came on this thread in context of the thread title and article and proceeded to speak negatively about FR which any self-respecting troll might do in your first two posts without any qualifiers, which for all intents and purposes looked to me like you were supporting the thread and the article with your statements. I merely took exception to it and challenged you on it as any self-respecting freeper might’ve done.

Some rational FRiends came to my defense!

All your church lady FRiends coming to your defense doesn't make them 'rational'. It merely makes them your cheerleaders.

Some people see the truth about you, even if your FRiends can't or won't.

I agree that true racism is bred from fear and hate, however lying not necessarily so. I will also add to tar someone as a racist merely cause it serves your agenda to do so is despicable and worthy of DU recognition.

Hey Grizzly, you know it's common FR etiquette to ping those freepers that you talk about in a post. For your information, I don't need to ping my FRiends as some people do, (cough, cough) or to create fictional ones to help me defend my positions.
