    Well as this is a business, we cannot help you with this issue.
    Internet filtering is there for a reason.
    If you want it changed you will have to talk to your IT department.

    If you do try to get around the blocks that management has put in then you may find you won't have to quit, you'll be fired and for cause so you won't be able to collect unemployment.

    The company has put in these controls for security reasons. To attempt to circumvent them would be a violation of their policy and could result in termination.
