I’m trying to completely eliminate porn (including cam sites) from my computer and iPhone 11 what’s the best way to do that?
I use these methods to block adult content, hope this is useful. 1) BLOCK BY WORDS: I believe WI-FI routers have this feature, block the words that you end up searching which are usually the reason for your triggers( ex: p@#n,etc...)( It took me a week to get all of my PMO trigger words.) (Works on WI-FI routers) if your router doesn't have this use this: https://blocksite.co/ it has word blocking feature. Make sure you enable it for incognito too. 2) Set up OpenDNS: (A little complicated but, works on all devices) Try blocking every porn site including twitter ( It is no less than a porn site), stock photo sharing sites, instagram etc. Open DNS: Step 1:https://www.opendns.com/setupguide/ Step 2:https://login.opendns.com/ (Manage which site you want to block) Step 3: https://support.opendns.com/hc/en-u...hat-is-the-OpenDNS-Dynamic-IP-updater-client- (Update your IP address with OpenDNS.)(Important) 3) ENFORCE SAFE SEARCH: To enforce safesearch: (Works on all devices) https://support.google.com/websearch/answer/510?co=GENIE.Platform=iOS&hl=en&oco=0 To lock safesearch: https://support.google.com/websearch/answer/186669?hl=en#:~:text=To confirm SafeSearch is on,%\system32\drivers\etc . Safe search makes sure there will be no porn or sexually arousing content in your searches. Note: I recommend setting up OpenDNS on a network level it works like a charm. I also believe, having safesearch will prevent you from searching up stuff. 4) WINDOWS 10 HOSTFILE BLOCKING: https://www.tenforums.com/tutorials/141019-block-websites-using-hosts-file-windows.html Warning: DO NOT BLOCK Windows 10 Telemetry service. I hope the helps. Stay strong.
@HoseD I am glad that my previous post was helpful. Mainly I use my laptop for accessing the web and rarely use a mobile device. (I use Google Chrome on my mobile device.) I have always found it hard to set up blockers for an android device. I have tried using apps from Google Play, most of which are paid and the free ones don't work properly. Switching to Mozilla Firefox for android is probably a good decision as it allows the use of extensions, which might help you to block sites even while using LTE. https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/mobile/ The problem with OpenDNS: You see OpenDNS would need to update its servers with your networks IP address every so often, for that you would need an DNS updater like https://support.opendns.com/hc/en-u...hat-is-the-OpenDNS-Dynamic-IP-updater-client- , sadly they are only available on PCs and Laptops (Till where I know). I had read a method posted by a user reporting that you could root your device to access hosts file and do the same as in #4 to block sites. I believe rooting a neatly working device is risky. Due to all the above reasons, I ended up minimizing the use of the device and disabling LTE for the browser, via mobile data settings. I hope this helps.
