Though websense is bypasable as it filters the request to the DNS and rejects based on a black list provided by Websense and custom sites added by the eer. In fact often if you go straight for the IP address it will be bypassed and you get to the site. This is far more ingrained into the network.

Which would be against ISP code of conduct, bit like a telco companies deciding to bar calling to certain other people or places.
