One of the latest films on the lap top tonight, seems he just googled the name and "full film"
Now this was a kids movie BUT there were links to some ads and videos that I'd rather he didn't see so I guess Parent Control required but what puzzled me was the fact that it was a .org site which I thought was government etc

Yep!
10 years old and there are things he can do with a PC that are beyond me.

subnet your network, block tcp/udp port 53 and run dnsmasq on your home server with a whitelist.
make sure your router and server are locked away!!
also stick one of these in the house in with the server and router



a GSM jammer.

that way he'll only be able to get porn using someone elses broadband
Sorry but that went so far over my head, it passed Santa on a dry run for next month

Or, leave him to his own devices and trust him. At 10 years old he'll not be looking at anything out of the ordinary, but will easily surpass your defences without your knowledge for when he is.

Most routers can log, and can turn on basic filtering at ISP levels. So you can see what he's watching.

I'd be more worried that he's committing piracy, one that distributors can and will easily pursue, with your name on the IP address. And probably take him to the cinema more often.
Agree with all that, I admit to a bit of downloading many years ago, I thought the ISP peeps had blocked everything now. Seems not.

Buy him a raspberry pi and then :

click here -----> https://learn.adafruit.com/onion-pi/overview
or here --------> https://learn.adafruit.com/downloads/pdf/onion-pi....

problems with piracy then, and everyone in the house can enjoy it too

Thought about a Raspberry Pi since they came out but didn't know what it was, how i'd make it work and what I'd do with it...

A good but simple talk with him this morning, little bit about blocked sites but more concentrated about the people who use the internet to make friends with young children, by pretending to be some other young child then get then to photo themselves or meet them somewhere. Then do really nasty things to them then kill them. Then quickly pointed out the things on the news about young girls disappearing and being found dead.
Bit of shock and awe but it seems to have penetrated his rather naïve young skull.
Like another poster his school have started a blog thing. Not in agreement with that I'm afraid.
Think I'll have a word with his class teacher to see what they teach them with regards grooming etc

Kids have it easy, I used to have to hide my mags in all sorts of places!
1963, I was 10, my mate up the street was 9, he found a mag belonging to his older brother.
"Parade", still remember my first sight of a rather pert pair poking through an open blouse....
