Dodgy books

[ladyofastolat]

I was just looking to find hints for the identity of "Daisy Meadows," author of an incredibly popular series of fairy books for pink little 7 year-old girls. One site looked promising, so I clicked on it... and the Council's web filter kicked in, and said that the site was blocked, due to a "78 percent chance of erotic and sexual content."

This is even more incongruous than when I was trying to find information on Hastings' Jack-in-the-Green folk festival during a lunch break, and the site was blocked, since it fell into the banned category of "recreation and pornography."

Hedgehog porn... Now there's an interesting, if rather uncomfortable, thought.

I did the same search again at home, and I know why the filter banned it. It's because the website had a section entitled "young adult books". It just sees "adult books" and instantly assumes it's pornography.
