    All of those could be done using Pluckeye and/or Cold Turkey.
    I have blocked the image domains for reddit then tried rdddeck (an alternative reddit client) and images were blocked on that. Also, as JosephKony said, you could just use: "pluck + flee word bad word" to block pages which contain specific strings or you could block all social media (will block facebook) as he suggested. FortiClient would be great for filtering all applications including emulators. You could also try fapsecure to enforce cleanbrowsing DNS.

    Hi people...sorry to randomly butt into this conversation but I'm trying to get my life back on track as my PMO habits have slowly grown back like a weed. I blocked all porn from smart phone a few months ago (main weakness as it's always there in the pocket)...I switched on safe browsing, typed in every Porn or 'danger' site (e.g. twitter) I could think of, locked the setting with passcode and purposely forgot the pass key. This is a nightmare to reset so buys me enough time to resist temptation but....

    ....a few months ago I found Reddit Porn was completely accessible (obviously I searched quite hard for it so need to take responsibility here) and it became the new drug of choice. This was eventually a gateway to three porn sites which for some reason aren't blocked, despite my phone, phone provider and broadband provider supposedly being set up to block them all....
    I therefore had a few questions for anyone happy to share their thoughts?;

    1. If I email my broadband provider telling them to block reddit and these other 3 P sites, would it be obvious I've been using for P? I'm very uncomfortable with someone knowing my name and contact details and also knowing I've asked specific porn sites to be blocked!
    2. Does anyone know of any specific 'problem' porn sites which seem to always beat all the filters and know how they manage this? (I won't name them publicly for obvious reasons)
    3. Do you think it's inevitable that eventually you'll find a 'weakness' in these defence systems no matter how good they are? i.e. you'll always find a way to access porn and then you don't have the inner tools to resist? (because you relied too much on the blockers doing the work for you?) I think the short answer is you have to work on your will power in conjunction and not get rely solely on blockers, but interested to know if you think there's a point where constantly trying to fortify these porn blockers is counterproductive/has diminishing returns?
    Many thanks

    Man , memorize your password and hide that , maybe on https://lockbox.pluckeye.net/
    Forticlient is kinda intrusive , but you could easily get your permissions here

    Hi , Did you failed also utilizing all these porn blockers on the guide? Did you tried them?

    Personally i opted on a drastic solution on smartphone , i blocked PlayStore /App Store with porn blockers , i blocked all search engines.
    Many porn blockers on the guide just can't be uninstalled

    I guess you used iOS Screen Time to do this. This is just a guess. Could you try the iOS filters in this thread? There is a profile that you install that blocks all images and videos on reddit and there is a great chance that it also blocks the bad sites causing you trouble.
    Personally, I wouldn't really care. I would just report those sites but I am not sure if they are going to block it. The main problem is that there are many other P sites that aren't blocked by that ISP and I suggest that you add more layers of protection.
    Yes, there are a lot of P sites that use alternative domains, so they can't get blocked. For example, xvideos, xvideos2, xvideos3 and so on. But to be honest, the iOS Screen Time blocker is not very good and you shouldn't depend on it. Also, most ISPs suck at blockin porn. Could you check out the filters in the thread? You might find them interesting.
    like, you I believe that is a must. But unfortunately, there are no proven ways of improving your will power. I have read some books about it and they are just useless.
    I have blockers on all of my devices and they make me feel safe. The only chance I get to watch porn is when I intentionally unlock the blockers to fix a problem or to test new ones. I fix any loophole I find and update the thread. There are also a few guys here who share their knowledge about blockers and the loopholes they find which we try to fix. So this makes it less likely for most people to bypass the blockers. Without the blockers, I would have been relapsing every other day like I used to.

    I have set up a P blocker and it has been very helpful in remaining P free. Highly recommended

    i seriously believe self control and discipline are main things in this journey, i don't use any porn blocker i just turned on safe search on google (still never look for anything like that) and never open private mode and little while back when i did it was just for something i didn't want to appear in my history (info on some stuff related to sex) and not lewd. if you can't control your urge to look at porn then you might as well find some other ways like disabling the blocker extension or using vpn and stuff.

    I stopped watching music videos too on my pc (still have them but don't bother, only listen audio) and as i progressing through my streak my urges have reduced alot as well i don't even fantasize before sleep in bed anymore, hardly get tempted by looking at girls in skimpy clothes (though i don't like that trend, though if it's bit extreme (or i look for little longer than needed) like an article i was reading like half an hour ago where this girl in cocktail dress was sitting above her husband who was lying on bed, it looked very sensual and made me slightly horny but i carried on after having slight glimpse, the key here is awareness and i have learned alot about it from past relapses).

    That is fair, however, I have found workarounds in the past and it is simple enough to do. The momentary pause and the use of a new blocker that I have not yet tried to circumnavigate has given me more opportunity for success. One does not go into the open ocean without a life-jacket. I find that in my hubris I have fooled myself into thinking that I am cured when in reality there is more healing that has yet to happen. We all walk different paths and I find that having a P blocker is where I am right now :)

    Great! I think Breathe is similar to Qustodio? Is there a difference between both? How do you store the password? I would be grateful for your reply
