I’ll be honest: yes, I do have unfiltered internet.
Several reasons:
1) I speak numerous languages and use content in numerous languages. I doubt most filters know more than 1 language (English, in general).
2) I am an IT specialist and could easily bypass any filter. I don’t like to boast, but honestly, a filter wouldn’t stop me. Or maybe it would, in which case it would damage my work. Part of my job is that I have my own lab system running at home (with about 30 devices, physical and virtual), running enterprise-grade software and accessible by VPN from outside. The system being accessible via VPN from outside means VPN the other way would also work, thereby bypassing any ISP filtering. Software filtering would easily fail if after connecting to that VPN you would connect somewhere else via RDP (for example some desktop at work if connect by VPN into the company network and access some virtual desktop by RDP there).
Thus, the only thing a filter would mean for me would be a potential hassle and bother to my ability to work, and at most an inconvenience should I ?”? want to access any inappropriate content. Meaning it’s a lose-lose situation and meaning I’m not going to do it, ever.
