Cannot be a 3rd party solution? All ISP's must re-invent the same
wheel.
For an exhaustive list show all Layer7 protocols. If the protocol can
send binary, then it can send porn. If the protocol can send text, then
it can send base64 encoded porn.
They're saying internet while thinking of the web, but even that is not
easy to monitor from the network side. Install the best porn blocking
network appliance in the world and then open a VPN connection to see it
completely circumvented. If you install something on the endpoint
rather than the network, then the user has access to tamper with it.
Kids are clever, they have free time, and they have motive. Once one
figures out how to bypass your blocking he'll show his buddies and then
then porn is back on.

The proposed solution is that any ISP over 500 customers has to provide
some kind of blocking technology to prevent harm to minors. And it
cannot be a 3rd party solution.
I want to come up with an exhaustive list of all the potential ways
minors can select harmful things on the internet. There is more than
just web pages out there.

Are you talking about
https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2017/04/states-introduce-dubious-legislation-ransom-internet
this style of blocking?
If you are talking about that style of blocking then as ISP we fight
this as it is not the ISP job to block.
If someone wants to block this type of content when the parent should
be in change of installing blocking software and picking what should be
blocked.

I have some proposed legislation I am facing about porn blocking
again. But they are not defining the type of service. It is one
thing to block web traffic, but how about netflix or twitter or skype
or......
I want to play defense here and force the lawmakers to define exactly
what we need to block.
So can you guys help me develop a list of all the things we would have
to analyze and block if we were going to attempt to create a true
device that protects kids.
