Easiest way to block device access to a web site?
One of my children, adult but special-needs, can't be trusted with his Facebook account. I'm otherwise comfortable with his using his computer, but would like to block his access to Facebook. Not just by changing the password and not saving it, but completely blocking his online access to even the login page.
From what I read, the best options are:
- Blocking via router - but won't work for me; my S@gemcom 5260 can only block websites for all devices or none
- Setting up a "child" user account with parental controls - not really optimal here; his account on his computer is fine as is, and unless I can just make it a "child" account, to put on parental controls, without setting up a new account, I don't want this route
- Edit the hosts file - I've done this before, years ago, and it worked fine. Not too elegant, but works
Based on what I say here, are there other easy options for me?
