>
> Abstract: This report examines a secret category in N2H2's censorware,
> a product often sold under the name "BESS, The Internet Retriever".
> This category turns out to be for sites which must be uniformly
> prohibited, because they constitute a LOOPHOLE in the necessary
> control of censorware. The category contains sites which provide
> services of anonymity, privacy, language translation, humorous text
> transformations, even web page feature testing, and more.
