When I used to run my VPN service, one of the filters I had did have a
category called Abortion. Check that box and all web site with
information on abortion was blocked.

As my VPN was a special VPN, designed to allow people at work to get
things like Internet radio, there were certain categories of content I
considered not appropriate for offices and blocked them. The categories
I used to block were

Adult
Alcohol
Abortion
Communism (there WAS such a category)
Crime and Criminal Skills
Drugs
Environmentalism
Gambling
Hacking
Hate Speech
Porn
Religious Right Loudmouths
Tobbacco
Weapons


Environmentalism is the BANE of big business, so therefore I blocked it,
as such sites should NEVER be allowed to be seen in the office.

The "Communism" did block Alexandria Ocasio Cortez by keyword. As far as
one of the filtering providers I used was concerned, she was a Commie.
So I am not the only one who considers her a Commie. Bernie Sanders and
Kamala Harris were also blocked under that category and THEY considered
them both to be Commies. As far as this vendor was concerned, communism
and socialism were the same thing.

The only problem with the Crime and Criminal Skills category, and I
don't think the folks as PDXISS want to to hear this, but the
POrtlandian was blocked under that category.

The Adult category was for content that is not pornographic, but still
adult in nature. This included a few skaters they considered "sex
symbols" in their day. THEY spelt Nicole's name "Bobeck". Since that is
the filtering vendor spelt it, I take THEIR spelling of her name as
correct and NOT "Bobek".
