First time poster, long time lurker (10 plus years).
As someone who runs an IT company out of NJ dealing with small businesses, we also do DNS filtering of websites on our clients’ computers. However, we only do it as a way of protecting their machines from potential malware or phishing. For instance, VERY few categories of websites would be blocked by us by default (those less than 30 days old, known malicious sites, etc). Everything else gets determined by the client and whether they want to let their employees to have access to specific sites. One of our clients specifically wanted Youtube blocked, even though some of their employees use it for training videos. Also, if a specific website is blocked, it can easily be requested to be unblocked by the click of a button.
The email being delayed should be an easy fix for the IT company to take care of.
Feel free to pm me if you would like if you have any questions or need any further advice (my account is too new to send a pm).
First, I’m super excited that I pulled you out of anonymity! LOL
Second, I really appreciate your clarity and input. Your parameters make sense (new website, known malware site, etc). Perhaps our IT co is doing the same thing but they posted a lengthy list of KNOWN liberal hot buttons like ‘weapons, misinformation (their misinformation and my misinformation are likely quite different), ‘hate’, social media, and a few others.
Regarding the emails (both the devotional and DJT emails) they just started getting either hung up or pushed into junk, possibly ALL related to paranoia :)) But I really have a distrust for entities that self appoint as the smartest entity in the room.
I will PM you
