What do you design?
If it's a government computer network I get why you couldn't open it. You ever worry your boss might see you on the Flat Earth Society for half a day and get the wrong impression?

Do you have to make everything partisan?
You cant just see England burning and think "this isn't ideal"?
Why would that be inciting terrorism?  Lorddave was merely describing a type of shop we have here in the US, a bomb-gun shop.  A shop that sells bomb-guns.

I design mostly useless stuff, point of sales displays for watches and cosmetics, not government, and my bosses are actually aware of what I do and care not, since Brexit and the austerity measures the high streets here have become a bit of a wasteland, so we limp along. Now I’m waiting for a firm I’m doing stuff for to send through what they want, so in an hour I’ll be head down and not responding but we can go for days without anything, so this.

The whole world has pockets of fucked, if I make light, or poke the rightists for a reaction I do it in knowledge of that, forgive my black sense of humour.

My humour can be a little dark too sometimes.

That's fine, I just assumed they monitored which websites you visited if they wouldn't let you access a webm sharing site. This site is hardly secure. I didn't mean to make you uncomfortable.

Under different circumstances we would have been such good friends.

The great majority of organisations, public and private, will run some kind of web filtering software.  The hospital where I work uses a system called Smoothwall - it maintains blacklists and uses heuristic rules based on keywords etc.  It can block legit sites if you try to open something that is talking about cryptocurrency for example.

I didn't try to open that link at work, but I'd presume it would have flagged it as dodgy and blocked the site.

I wasn't implying anything, Jimmy.
Its just strange then that this website isn't filtered. Considering some of the topics spoken of, and how this website isn't exactly secure.

I didn't mean to make anyone uncomfortable. I think we are a little past that.

I wasn't implying that you were implying anything   8).  Just saying web filtering is standard.

Too obscure to get on any black list and the content doesn't hit of the stuff that is automatically blocked - like porn, gambling, crypto, drugs, malware etc.  At worst it's a time waster, but so is most of the internet.

Quote
Considering some of the topics spoken of, and how this website isn't exactly secure.
The topics are just what you kind find all over the place from twitter to reddit and they aren't blocked (well some places may block them, but generally not).

Oh, I did also enjoy the Cyberpunk anime - did a good job of bringing the game to life and was a bit of a blast.

It has been raining nonstop since about 4pm yesterday. I think we've had between 5-6 inches here. I think it's finally about to stop for a bit.

Very cool! I've been quietly following your progress on facebook and it looks pretty cool. Make sure to drill everyone unrelentingly about the shape of the planet, of course.

Well of course, the masses must be informed of the earth's true shape.

I've done more design work this week, as well as less brain-tasking stuff. Its pretty interesting work, I do hope I'll get a job there after the placement.
