Best option is to give up early and take other easier paths, like teaching each and every client not to browse porn in the first place. Or just blocking all non-plaintext traffic unless its pre-vetted.

Using a soft block has proven to be quite effectively (soft == user gets
told the content may be unappropriate according to the policy of use and
then gets the choice to continue if he inists, knowing that traffic is
logged and inspected..).

Yes, thats the best/easiest way to educate. You don't even need to spend time talking people through the policy. Just mention its present, and details come when they look like about to break it.


In such setups the filter does not need to be very good, or even
accurate. It's job is solely to remind people that there us a policy of
use they need to follow and that their Internet use is monitored for
abuse.

The full-word pattern looks like this:
    [^a-zA-Z]([a-zA-Z]+)[^a-zA-Z]
substitute your word for the bracketed part.

There is also regex word boundary conditions which helps reducing the
above..

\bbadword\b

works on most regex libraries (certainly anything derived from or
related to GNU regex).

Thanks you.


but then you need to think of what is a word in the context... most
likely you will find that nearly none of your patterns is a word in the
context, just parial words from their use actually being cocatenated
with some other word without any form of separator..

*** Note this is ONLY US-ASCII english words. Mostly useless now that URI have been internationalized.

And what crap way that has been done... but I guess the porn industry
loves it for it's obscurity.

Not nearly as much as the russian 419 fraudsters appear to have.
