Oh, and even that's not easy.

Finding and creating a whitelist that ensures necessary stuff gets done
without allowing people to bypass blocks is almost impossible. Getting
around these sorts of blocks isn't a matter of theoretical possibility,
it's a matter of someone putting in enough time and effort into
bypassing it. If you don't have complete control over all devices all
the time, you might as well just give up.
