Bypassing Google Images  headphones

If you try this little search in Google you can see there's many ways to bypass web filters which try and block Google images.

Search Google for "google images bypass internet filter" and you will see many ways which describe how to bypass your web internet servers content filter.

Maybe you think your web server has protection but I'd advise you to think again !

Put a stop to this with Watch Out !

With web and internet filter systems blocking by sites rather than by specific content, this leaves a hole in your web internet server's protection when user's search on Google images. When a user searches on Google images the Google web pages are returned displaying all the thumb nail images of the request. It's only when the user clicks on an image to display the page that the site filter block gets actioned.

Maybe your web server has some protection, maybe you have the images blocked but if you have looked at the suggested search above you will see there's always a way around.

Therefore protect your home, school or business with Watch Out by :

  • monitoring for those words which the user will key in to start the Google search, catch them as they start a search
  • constantly taking screen image copies which pick up and save the Google image displays

By having the ability to determine what a user is keying into their search criteria and having saved screen image copies as evidence, you have the means to track and catch offenders.

What about Internet Content Filters .....

Watch Out can also be used alongside Internet Content Filter applications. Whilst these filtering applications can prevent access to an inappropriate web site as stated above they do have limitations, such as :

  • web sites change everyday which means You need to manually update the filters daily
  • filters can be bypassed by a simple internet search, see how ...

Bypassing Internet Content Filters, try this simple test :headphones

  • go to Google (www.google.com)    
  • click on the images link to request Google search for images
  • enter something to search for in the search bar e.g. cars
  • click the Search Images button
  • thumbnail images are displayed relevant to your search criteria

If you were to try another search word, one that you may not approve of, then images related to your search criteria are displayed.

Your Internet Content Filter does not stop you viewing these inappropriate images. If you tried that suggested search above, you will see there's many ways people use and try to get around your content filters. 

Your employees and students may be viewing all sorts of images .......
