In addition, hareidi.org recognizes that pornography and sexually abusive content on the internet is a significant problem that affects both families who do not follow the rulings of the ''hareidi'' rabbinical authorities, as well as those ''hareidim'' who are required and permitted to use the internet.

This article is devoted to explain the issues involved, and recommend possible solutions. There is a complete software Internet Filter system based on the PRIVOXY available for download on this page.

There have been several Rabbinic admonitions against the use of the internet.<ref>In the late 1990s, when the world wide web was exploding with new websites, a brief, informational site on Satmar Hasidism, apparently published by an independent-minded Satmarer, issued a warning in Yiddish at the top of its home page which said, “if you can read this, you should not be using the internet. It is muktse.” - [http://modiya.nyu.edu/handle/1964/265 Topic: Haredim and the internet]</ref><ref>In early 2000, a group of prominent Haredi rabbis in Israel representing Hasidic, Lithuanian, Sefardic and Mizrahi precincts, issued a ban on use of the internet. They argued, "The Internet is a danger 1,000 times greater [than television, which was banned 30 years ago], and is liable to bring ruin and destruction upon all of Israel." - ibid.</ref><ref>In November of 2003, the official English language journal of Agudat Israel, The Jewish Observer, dedicated an issue to the dangers of the internet. The article offers excerpts from the Novominsker Rebbe’s address given at the Torah Umesorah convention on the problems of the Internet, in which he alleged that “The internet, with a flick of a button, invades a Jewish home, a Jewish soul, and makes moral disaster.” The Rebbe added that “if your business cannot get along without it, you must create the strictest controls around its use. Do not give it free rein! Remember that you are dealing with a force that contains spiritual and moral poison.” - ibid.</ref><ref>In the same issue, Rabbi Leyb Keleman writes that, “the internet has penetrated our community, but with the same strength [with which we avoided television], we shall uproot it…. Our gedolim have advised us to remove internet from our homes, and so we will do.” - ibid.</ref> In 5765 (2005), after examining internet filtering technology, various ISP's offering "kosher" service, and reviewing the number of case where individuals in religious households were affected by this problem, the halachic authorities of several important hareidi communities ruled that current technology does not provide adequate safeguards to prevent these problems. It was ruled that internet usage must be reduced or minimized and in most cases eliminated, and for the first time the ''Gedolei Hador'' took the unusual step of requiring physical security of any internet appliance, and externally verifiable compliance by religious households.
