Why would you want to censor based on network? You don't want to censor based on network, you want to censor based on device. If your 8yo kid is blocked from pornhub, that doesn't mean everyone on your network is blocked from pornhub, and you having the ability to even know if someone on your network is browsing pornhub is a security risk.

Because consumer devices are barely if at all capable of even setting policy, are basically incapable of enforcing it, and are generally adversarial. It's also easy to apply different policies to different clients at the network level.

  • The new California and Colorado laws force consumer devices to be capable of setting and enforcing policy.
