Why Use Cloudflare’s Family Filter

Cloudflare’s Family Filter automatically blocks adult content across your network — no extra software needed.
It’s fast, secure, and works across most Linux distributions and routers for full network protection.

Important Note

This adds a strong layer of protection, but savvy users may still find ways around it.
For most households, though, it’s a reliable and simple safeguard against explicit sites.

Troubleshooting

If the filter doesn’t seem to work:
• Double-check DNS settings (disable “Automatic”)
• Restart your computer
• Clear browser cache
• Turn off IPv6
