Seen a few comments here about sites like Youtube being blocked for some and I was surprised this was still going on.

Far too many items in the world are designed, constructed and foisted upon us with no understanding-or even care-for how we will use them.

Our company did block Youtube and social media but lifted the block several years ago when they wanted employees to comment on content. Of course there are rules to the comments.
