We carefully screen the websites we list for free, or some free, family-friendly content. A site will be rejected for any of the following:
1. Aggressive commercialism.
2. Pop-up or banner ads for known spyware products, or too many pop-up/pop-under ads.
3. Deceptive practices, like listing adware or demo products as "Freeware".
4. Extreme political or religious views.
Sometimes a site is rejected for no special reason, just because it didn't feel "right" to us, and sometimes we make a mistake, listing a site we should have rejected. We don't avoid commercial sites because some of them also have interesting free content. We don't entirely avoid sites that have pop-up advertising because nearly everyone has some sort of pop-up control on their computer these days. We don't avoid politics and religion because they're part of life but we avoid extremism and we keep our own political and religious views to ourselves as much as possible.
