Can't block adult contents on youtube

Although I used parent control choosing higher filter level but all adult contents on YouTube are accessible; how to block adult contents on YouTube too??

Hi Manar01,

 

LPC will not be able to filter the contents from websites. It will only be able to filter the actual websites which are categorized on a certain filtering level.

    Thanks Dexter.

    I added YouTube to the blacklist but I noticed that it is only blocked through browser access, access still possible through YouTube application (access is not blocked). Any advice please who to block the application too?

    Hi Manar01,

     

    LPC only works on browsers. Applications use different ports which are no longer covered by OpenDNS filtering.
