Tengaged gets categorised as a porn site and gets banned at Starbucks. 🤣
I work at a security company where we have a Web product which accesses a database which categorises URLs. The way this product works is by real-time scanning the content, which can then update the main category of the site in the database.
So even if Tengaged.com as a domain is gaming, each URL gets scanned and blocked/allowed based on the content.
Reason for the waffle - let's say Starbucks decides to use a product like the one we produce and decide to block all explicit sites. Can you imagine if Tengaged ended up counting as an explicit site because the content can be viewed and scanned without needing an account?
Tbh it would take Rando fudging the code (or someone hacking the coding) for a static category to change in that way but hey - anything is possible.
I have seen a website get categorised as "Sex" because someone snuck a porn site as a linked URL. Fun times. 🤦🏽♀️
