Posts Tagged ‘banned no more’

Since some of you were getting my jewelry site/blog/etc. tagged as “sex,” I wrote Websense directly and asked why. on. earth. my blog (which rightfully refers to a wine-poached pear as sex-ass; and talks occasionally about pro-choice issues in a non-explicit way) got blocked.

Thank you for writing to Websense.

The sites you submitted are virtually hosted sites that were not in our database.  However, they share an IP address with other sites in our database which caused an unintended overblock.  These sites have been reviewed and categorized accordingly:

http://blog.birdofparadox.com/ – Social Networking and Personal Sites
http://www.birdofparadox.com/ – Shopping
http://birdofparadox.com/ – Shopping

Categorization updates should be available in the next scheduled publication of the database.  A new database is published every business day, five days a week, Pacific Standard Time.

Thank you for your assistance,

The Websense Database Services Staff

Now, I just need to be sure my other subdomains (like shockra.birdofparadox.com), as well as the other domains our side business hosts, aren’t being hit with the “sexual content” stamp of disapproval.
