@quad@akko.quad.moe iirc my workplace blocked the old defunct kiwifarms domain. I think it's still blocked, but the one actually used nowadays works fine lmao
the weirdest one so far was probably when I went to donate blood plasma. it takes like 45 minutes so I decided to check on amren.com with my other hand and it was blocked for extremism

@grips@cawfee.club i dunno how it is at other companies, but at ours we just have security people who use pre-made filters from big tech companies, which just gives them a list of categories, then they like to check way too many. and even if they make an exception, they never bother reporting it upstream as a false positive (and the filter maintainers don't respond to anyone but their paying customers). which leads to a situtation where once a website gets added to a giant list from what firewall or other security vendor, it just never gets removed, even if it's a false positive or a 10 year old entry
