Internet filtering and blocking policies
Dear The University of Chichester,
I am writing as a research volunteer at the Open Rights Group. We are conducting a study to better understand the filtering and blocking of websites on the public estate, to understand what content and sites are inaccessible and why.
In relation to Universities. We are following up on our previous FOI requests with a refined list of questions to make the answers uniform and suitable for analysis. With this in mind, please answer the questions as directly as possible.
We would like to know, in relation to your publicly accessible Internet networks, or Internet networks for your clients:
1. The categories of content blocked or filtered, e.g.:
(a) Security or Malware
(b) Content types, eg adult, alcohol etc
2. Statistics relating to the requests blocked or filtered, eg how many site requests filtered or blocked per category
3. Monitoring requirements you have for users, eg if you record or may record their Internet usage
Your faithfully,
James Collis
Open Rights Group
