Most times it is possible to opt out of the filtering, but the disabling procedure differs according to your ISP. The blocking techniques vary with some sites or specific URLs blocked by some ISPs and not others. Usually ISP web filters use blacklists of restricted sites and automatically block pages by using their own created website lists and likely through a keyword examination. These filters work at the network level, so all users within a household are subject to the same web filters. It means you might not see a lot of useful content online without a VPN. You can also visit the The Open Rights Group website www.blocked.org.uk that allows petitioning to unblock the site you want to visit. Get NordVPN here: https://nordvpn.com/special/youtube
