REPORT: Access Still Denied: Internet Filtering & Public Education (Dec 2017)
“Political,” “hobbies,” “dictionary” and “news” are just four of the ‘filtered’ categories blocked by RI school districts’ Internet filtering systems. This was one of the findings of this report on the status of Internet filtering in RI public schools. A follow-up to a 2013 analysis on the same issue, the report found that RI schools’ filtering systems continue to over-censor school Internet networks, hampering academic freedom and access to relevant educational information.
