Work environments are changeable. There are more employees traveling and working remotely, yet still connected to the corporate network.

- VPNs
- Programs like Remote Desktop

Most software filters are installed on the computers being monitored. If a user is savvy, he can just disable the monitoring software. Alternatively, some offsite Internet filtering service software filters can be installed on servers to monitor traffic, but the CPU load that filtering imposes means filters have to run on a separate proxy server, which are easily disabled.
Then there are the complications of trying to find offsite Internet filtering service software that is compatible with all other operating systems. Setting up additional hardware and software to run monitoring, and trying to configure the network to accommodate filters can further complicate these operating system issues.
