How is the White-list mode (available in Parental Controls section of most routers) supposed to work? Almost all of the sites contain external links and images, JavaScript CDNs and what not, which means that simply including that main website (e.g. wikipedia.org
) in the white-list should not work, because none of those dozens of external domains would be in the white-list and therefore not accessible through the router, thereby making the main page non-functional for the most part. User can't possible include all those external domains in the white-list because there are so many of them and continue changing frequently.
How do routers handle this problem? Or do they? (I haven't been able to make white-list mode work on at least two routers, while the blacklist mode work flawlessly on both routers).
wikipedia.org
. These are mostly CDNs, external images and what not.
