The Internet is structured to be an open communications medium. This
openness is one of the key underpinnings of Internet innovation, but
it can allow communications that may be viewed as either desirable or
undesirable by different parties. Thus, as the Internet has grown,
so have mechanisms to limit the extent and impact of abusive or
allegedly illegal communications. Recently, there has been an
increasing emphasis on "blocking", the active prevention of abusive
or allegedly illegal communications. This document examines several
technical approaches to Internet content blocking in terms of their
alignment with the overall Internet architecture. In general, the
approach to content blocking that is most coherent with the Internet
architecture is to inform endpoints about potentially undesirable
services, so that the communicants can avoid engaging in abusive or
illegal communications.
