                there is an Intune policy to block deepseek URL (https://www.deepseek.com/) , policy is named iOS Block URL's this policy is applied to the following groups
                  Intune_iOS_iPhones_Individual Intune_iOS_iPhones_Role Intune_iPads_BI Intune_iPads_SL Intune_iPads_EH this appears to block sub domains, although documentation suggests otherwise this blocks URL's on all iOS devices that are Intune enrolled this will block even when devices are remote to PBR network this policy will also block content not suitable for children as per Apple Statement Below

                  Use Apple’s built in AutoFilter algorithm that looks for adult language, i.e. swearing and sexually explicit language. This function evaluates each web page as it is loaded and attempts to identify and block content not suitable for children. If you have specific URLs that need to bypass Apple’s filtering algorithm, add them to Permitted URLs list. If you have specific URLs that need to be blocked regardless of Apple’s AutoFilter, add them to the Blocked URLs list.
