Content filtering is a nasty field (both content complexity and legal minefields). We have explicitly designed the Squid proxy just to proxy traffic around, not to perform cuch filtering itself. Squid instead provides ICAP and eCAP adaptation interfaces for third-party services or plugins to use for content filtering and many other things: http://www.squid-cache.org/Misc/icap.html http://www.icap-forum.org/icap?do=products Even a NoSQL cache plugin http://www.squid-cache.org/Misc/ecap.html Amos -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.22 (MingW32) iQEcBAEBAgAGBQJUP1MtAAoJELJo5wb/XPRj4e8IAIS8GiLCTdjIPwkR8DCr1Id/ S9PlXJ1l74kGBVJ2l8zOcZS6WQ6lwRjzHDw1zlnXWHNoBsagfHkasX1KNtO7ih1u tkkBtRlrlmXf3zleWoD2isxy58DmoVFfNbJxhy9UM7jB4HrRn7V4kQYjWRxtX8F+ ZQs/igD4UPAZOkGY8nuyNKVZuMLRr9+ZsOn+qmm5KFFG1xYAOYErzcUiQfhku0d2 Vnt/pMooeYJfAOd3uttfRWWClF1KrbOYebb+jfo5DvMBvLnvjLaLF7WaOa0Ljba6 607NBlyB33dqpW4qIk4503N8P0LMXrSRdrr9NwiJ3AB7xGJzSZb5zG5LUyr3v98= =WUcV -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ squid-users mailing list squid-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.squid-cache.org/listinfo/squid-users
