F.Y.I.
The school district that I work for = has blocked access to the
webdna.us website.
The content = filter provider is Lightspeed Systems.
If = Lightspeed is blocking webdna for me, it must also be blocking it for = others.
I just thought that you should = know.
My school district IT Dept. has told me = this:
On 2/9/2017 The = Web domain "webdna.us" was = categorized as "Security" by our content filter provider (Lightspeed = Systems). A Security categorization is defined by Lightspeed as = follows: "The root security category contains sites that do not clearly = fall into one of the subcategories or may fall into multiple categories. = This category may also contain sites that are not in themselves bad but = contain information that poses a potential security risk"Categorizations = can occur automatically by search algorithms or as in this case, = manually by a human having viewed the offending content, and / or = verifying the potential of said content through the Terms of Use = agreement on a particular website. The = categorization of "webdna.us" has been = manually reviewed almost daily by the staff at Lightspeed, and the = Security categorization has been upheld. It is the = corporate policy of Lightspeed systems that they will not respond = directly to a request for additional information on an individual = categorization, other than a request to review the = categorization. In order to = allow access to webdna.us websites, = we would have to override the categorization of the entire domain, thus = allowing whatever Security (risk) content is available on that domain to = be accessed by students.
As it is our = responsibility as caretakers of the local Network, as well as a = requirement under CIPA (Children`s Internet Protection Act) to provide = our best assurance that inappropriate content is restricted from our = district network, we will not be overriding this categorization to = access to "webdna.us".
