School Website Blocker Bullstuff

[Deus Ex]

netflix is blocked because it's not school related.
imgur isn't blocked because it's an image hosting site, and images can be used for projects and the like.

tinypic and photobucket are blocked. Makes no sense to me.

sometimes school websites are blocked
my entire school district is way too strict

This for me. And YouTube is on a whitelist system so you can only see certain videos

My school apparently caught on to VPNs being used, because mine don't work anymore. They recently blocked Pandora and unblocked YouTube. On YouTube though, it might only be the app that got unblocked. I guess I can check tomorrow.

Also, if the tech people in your school aren't as handicapped as they seem to be, you might just get in trouble for looking at research lol.

You can just download firefox onto the computers or your USB

Some of the websites don't get blocked on firefox.

u wot? Either it works 100% and blocks all the same websites or it doesn't block any because somehow the school is too stupid to block traffic directly through the internet connection. It doesn't just work for "some" of them.

my school uses the barracuda blocker and it blocks everything game related as well as puush because of "spyware." they used to have youtube blocked because it "used up too much bandwidth"

our IT guys are p chill though

In my school, Imgur is blocked on both IE and Google Chrome, but not Firefox. Same for Reddit, 4chan, and some game websites. A few things are still blocked for some reason, though.

That's why Pandora was blocked at my school.

My school blocks sites for being "forums/discussion boards", but the Blockland Forums are blocked under the term "Games".

[Malin Prosper]

My school uses Lightspeed. It's loving awful, it even blocks some educational sites like Duolingo.

[Rigel]

Only very popular forums like something awful and facepunch are blocked normally.

I can go on BLF and Bay 12 just fine.

my school computers don't block 8chan.
