Also rather worrying (although too frequent) that it is the IT department
controlling the filter rather than the library

It's the IT deptartment who control the filter and changes can be made and
I've asked for that to be done, although that request has to come from your
line manager, which if you think about it is fair enough.
But it's Fortiguard that I blame. It's their filter and I think it's a
recent change on their part as I don't remember having problems looking at
similar sites in the past. Did I mention that I was blocked from looking at
something on the ACLU site about copyright the other day for the same
reason? Not the main page but one of the subcategories.
Rather worrying that a web filter company actually has Advocacy as a
category atall.
