How to Block Netflix

How to Block Netflix thumbnail
Protect your little ones from questionable content by restricting Netflix access.

Although Netflix contains family television shows and movies, it also has a large selection of PG-13 and R-rated movies that are inappropriate for children to watch. In order to prevent your children from gaining access to the site's questionable content, the parental controls feature on your Macintosh or Windows-based PC restricts the site on your child's computer account. Once the site is added to the restricted sites list, your child is prompted to enter your administrator password to bypass the site restriction.
