Ok, now you've got me worried. At first I was thinking overly protective
father/parent of kids, but you're telling me that you want this to
protect yourself?
I've been on-line since the 70's, seen all sorts of online filth and
other crap, none of it's as bad as what I've seen around the world in
places I never want to be again.
If this is just for your own benefit, and you've got a LOT of money and
time to play with, then you've also got a lot of time to look into
software solutions.
The key thing here is that nothing will keep you, the administrator,
from doing anything you want, so why not just use your own self-control
to not do it, or just accept that you are going to have to live with it?
I'm actually confused about you now.
