Family Ratings (ICRA) Support Terminated
It was brought to my attention not long ago that FOSI (Family Online Safety Institute) has terminated its support for the ICRA rating. What was an ICRA rating? This was a special code that was hidden within a web page to its 'family friendly' status in so far as content and pictures. The idea for the rating was that it would work with parental controls someone may have installed so as to block adult content from view.
While I am proud to say the code for CEBUG's site had support for such a rating for many years, this is no longer true with the termination of this support through FOSI. Nor is it clear if they, or some other agency, will setup something new along these lines. Rest assured, however, that our site will continue to operate as a 'family friendly' site in so far as the type of content and images found here. Since the launch of the new software on our site in 2008, we have always had moderation tools in place so that we can review content prior to publication. Only those who have achieved trusted status with us are allowed to bypass that step.
