    I am just wondering why a lot of adult sites which are not blocked are already categorized as adult sites on categorify.org? Shouldn’t it be such that if a site is categorized as an adult site then it is also being blocked?

    Hi

    See if this article explaining how we do categorization better explains how it works: https://community.cleanbrowsing.org/cleanbrowsing-categorization-engine/

    The short answer is that categorify does a real-time scan. If it doesn’t match what we have on record, it updates the system in about 24 / 48 hours. So there are going to be instances where they are out of sync until the updates run.

    Thanks
