Google Translator used to bypass filtering

Hi all,

recently i read about using google translator (or other translation tools) to bypass proxy policies. I personally tested and i saw it works, so users can display a webpage that should be blocked by a policy if they insert the URL inside a translation tool (e.g Google translate or Bing), 'cause, i think, those webpages cannot be correctly categorized as they are "inside" the translation tool URL.

The page is not perfectly visible but most parts of the website is still readable. I created a custom URL category containing a regex that matches web page transation by google, but this causes two problem :

1) Blocks all web page translations by google translate;

2) Does not block any other translation tool, meaning that i eventually have to create a specific regex for every translation tool.

Is there something i can do to correctly categorize website inserted inside translation tools so there is no need to block entirely web page translations ?

Thanks in advance
