Sometimes you  need to block almost everything in the internet, so there is the "whitelist only" mode, but maybe yo still want to acces to your email, or read the newspaper,  and you begin to unlock or whitelist individual domains, and you can easily reach the 50 whitelist domain limitation very quicky, and you will need to increase that number, just to be able to enter a couple of sites.
I was thinking that if opendns could do the same that they are doing but in the opposite way, instead of blocking categories, so you can enter everywhere in the internet except the sites that are blacklisted or in the blocking categories, it would be something like, yo can't enter to any site that is not in your individual whitelist or categories whitelist. So you can block everything, except the "news, or tv, radio" categories, if a site is not categorized it will be blocked by default, but it can be whitelisted, or blacklisted if you dont fell comfortable with that site.

Thanks, i hope it can be done.

  That would be a great feature to have.

  You got my vote.

  Btw, for the time being you can possibly help yourself while utilizing entries in the local hosts file to become able resolving domains which would otherwise be blocked by your OpenDNS settings (whitelist mode).
