This is genuinely really cool. I worked IT at a school for a bit, and for anyone who doesn't know, having a good web filter is extremely important for legal reasons. The people in charge of implementing it can get into a lot of trouble if it's done improperly, hence why they always seem to block things so aggressively.
All of the current offering are complete garbage, with Lightspeed being the worst offender. An open source alternative could do a lot of good. I hope this kid is successful.
