Don't Filter Me Project

The Don't Filter Me Project is a campaign designed to eradicate biased filters on school computers. Many schools have filters on that prevent students from accessing sites that contain information on LGBT rights, but do not block sites that are anti LGBT rights. Preventing viewpoint discriminatory censorship is extremely important to creating a freer and more open internet. This project has had several positive results, such as: some companies have agreed to place non sexual LGBT websites in a neutral category so that students may still access those sites. I would love to see something like this implemented in more than just the category of LGBT. Some schools block sites that can provide sexual health information because the filters claim they contain pornographic pictures. Needless censorship can harm kids more than it will protect them.
