Web Guard, an optional feature offered to T-Mobile wireless subscribers, blocks access to any websites that feature adult content; such as those with information about violence, guns, pornography, and drugs. If you're finding Web Guard to be too overbearing, you can disable it using the T-Mobile website or the T-Mobile app for iPhone and Android. Web Guard can only be turned off by the primary account holder.
