Porn blockers and filters always have loopholes trust me. When the urge hits, its like a junky who wants his fix. You’ll always find a way. As for what I’ll do now, I’m sure I’ll find something doing.
I think the loopholes you found is the problem with the setting. Congrats on xyz addiction to be brave and take action, everyone is addicted to something but its the thought process and WILL where it all starts.
A smoker could drop coffee and beer as those are the morning and evening triggers, but to overcome the smoking addiction is the WILL to say NO, NO MORE!
I would say that eliminating triggers is a good thing as it makes your process to overcome any kind of addition easier. Have been a smoker for long time, and tried cold turkey many times and it worked for a bit.. then I tried meds, that was worst. However eliminating coffee and switch it with tee made a big difference and vaping.
All in all, what I am trying to say is: Have a real sys admin look at your laptop and lock it down with group policy that you can not view any type of po*n sites or anything even related to it.
You should not give up your "Passion" for coding or being online. But if its easier for you , go ahead and take the battery out and say goodbye. I am just trying to say that there are methods of being present online with limited access, and trust me there is NO loopholes you can break.
Blockers and filters are crap for what you need and I totally agree with you.
For further actions, you may consider blocking this person and/or reporting abuse
We're a place where coders share, stay up-to-date and grow their careers.
This escalated quickly :S
Maybe use some kind of blocker/filter for porn websites? Any plans on what you will work on in the future?
