Die Mas


Looks like Taco Bell wants you to think outside the gun. [More]

And since their media department ignored my clarification/comment request, it looks like they'd just as soon not talk about it.

But others have noticed. I guess it must fall into the terms of use "objectionable" category,

Not the first time Yum! has affiliated itself with anti-gun policies...

No need for me to go to Taco Hell for lunch. There is always another place to grab a meal. I vote with my feet and buy where I feel welcome.

I can never get their free wifi to work anymore anyway.

Sam's Club does the same thing as for as blocking sites. Kinda sucks when you're trying to check reviews on the few things that they sell gun related like safes.

I imagine the company that makes the filtering software is more to blame. Who knows where they get their lists of objectionable sites. And who categorizes them?

Rather than exercise finer control over blocked sites, they probably just select a very broad objectionable category. That's very easy from an IT perspective.

The problem is, Steve, whose system is being filtered? The customer has total say in what to use, and as the additional link and my inquiry demonstrate, they know about it and choose to leave things blocked.

Uh huh. If it's the filtering company why hasn't taco hell fired them?

I've noticed a lot of "complimentary" wifi access points doing rather strange things.
