If your network design forces all HTTP(S) traffic to go through your
squid proxy on tjener, you can allow/block access based on heaps of
things (IP range, MAC adresses, target URLs, ...).
You could also add something like squidguard or dansguardian for better
filtering.

However, this needs constant watch+work, as people tend to find new ways
/ websites every day to circumvent such filters.

Another approach is to modify your DNS to serve wrong results for
certain URLs, but that would only stop non-tech-sawy people from
reaching their goals.
