Re: Scanning/complaints/"warnings"



In addition to possible qualifying or warning language on viewable text
of the pages themselves, you may also want to consider use of Platform
for Internet Content Selection (PICS)
http://www.w3.org/PICS/

It can be used to label materials for rating and filtering.  Since, as
has been expressed, just about anything could be potentially offensive
to someone, the use of PICS allows a more specific "negotiation" between
the client and server of information about what may be appropriate.
