Are you referring specifically to the nossl.google.com hostname? Is this what is being retired?

Various institutions have different filtering requirements, these cannot met by a single safe-search flag imposed by Google.

Removing the ability of network admins to control search traffic to Google leaves them with a stark choice 1) blocking Google entirely 2) Put vulnerable people at risk.

Will the non-ssl version remain available? We monitor our employee searches and it seems this change would disrupt that ability and introduce a liability to business.

Has anyone discovered a way around this issue?

I've tried contacting several people at Google to clear up the fact that this could potentially expose educational users to unwanted material, but have been met with a wall of silence.

forcesafesearch is not working. I don't understand why you have to make this so difficult for parents with a small network at home. Please come up with something that an organisation like opendns can implement
