Can you explain? Does it do it by itself or does it do it because you tell it to go there?

May 16, 2014 5:14 PM in response to Pigmeatby Pigmeat,I think I accidently started up Safari, and it started accessing Google as a search engine. On my Mac, I block all Google web sites in my firewall. I want to not only block Google's web sites but also accesses to Google servers that are embedded in most web pages.
I'd also like a better choice of search engines, but I can get StartPage.com and DuckDuckGo by just typing the URL.

May 16, 2014 5:24 PM in response to JEM24by Pigmeat,The problem with used Allowed Content is that it's a whitelist, which would be too long to enter and also doesn't block 3rd party web accesses within a page from a web site that is allowed. What I really want is a firewall, something like Little Snitch.

Aug 8, 2016 6:54 AM in response to lllaassby Pigmeat,Parental Controls block web sites. A firewall blocks web servers, that is, both web sites and 3rd party servers that are referenced within a web page. The 2 are totally different. Parental Controls restrict content. Firewalls are for security and privacy.
