Hi,

I have been using Zenarmor to block youtube videos (App Controls under the default policy). Yesterday found my daughter watching a youtube video (which is supposed to be blocked). Checked the settings again and everything is set to block youtube.

Why is youtube still allowed despite the correct settings? a bug?

Was she watching on a iPhone or iPad with iCloud Privacy extension enabled? Not sure if Zenarmor can block this. Sorry total noob, never used Zenarmor.

Check in ZA logs for your daughter, if you see the device she used to connect to youtube. Check Connections as well block tabs. What do you see there.

Regards,
S.
Networking is love. You may hate it, but in the end, you always come back to it.
