No, the point is that an organization have to have well-defined Acceptable
Use Policy, HR, Legal and the employee population must agree to it. URL
software developers help monitor the situation but they also have to
consider the various organizations they are marketing to, and start really
putting together some solid software that can be used in conjunction with
the URL software.

Mark,
If one has valid reasons (such as the investigations you cited) to search
for
sex-criminals or so, then software may help. but te software is used to
search not to block.
you need to have an eye until you find what you're looking for.
yes, you may be concerned by the "image" of the company if things get
known.
there may be other reasons.
however, I still believe that the problem is too hard to solve without
introducing other problems.
That's certainly my opinion, but I prefer to work in a company where
employees are tusted and hold responsible,
assume that they are good at the (minimal?) risk of being deceived, than
working in a "heavy atmosphere".
