The filtering software was made in haste, and a simple web robot -- with overly simplistic rules -- was used to create the blocked site database.

But as long as the filter software buyers do not care of filtering quality or accuracy, there's nothing much to be done about it.

I think Finkelstein should start educating filter software buyers instead of flaming the software developers -- they're not going to develop anything better unless their customers demand it. Whining will not draw enough attention to the matter.

But amid fighting the issue he's been whining and boasting of his efforts. He sounds as professional as Steve Gibson [grc.com].

I'm sorry if I cannot bring myself to appreciate the person even if the work he has done is valuable. He's been drawing attention to himself and blaming software companies because they do not listen to his opinion. And I'm just wondering, why doesn't anyone else stand up with him? Probably because he's not the kind of a fellow people want to be associated with.

This is my opinion. You don't have to agree with it.
