My school is ridiculous when it comes to blocking stuff on the internet. Everyone knows that we're not going to use the internet for our education (well, hardly) whatever they do.
At the moment, on our individual accounts, they have blocked:

- changing out desktop background
- right clicking on the tabs on the task bar
- using google image search
- Downloading anything
- going on arcades/ games
- going into forums
- watching media
- any website hosting sites. (ie piczo, angelfire etc)

Specific blocked websites:

- Gaiaonline
- YouTube
- Rathergood (blocked under 'tasteless'!)

I think they should loosen up- no other school like ours is this strict. I think it's quite petty, actually.

So, sign if you agree, and if you think your school is the same. Thank you.

You're right...the strict firewall system is just not necessary. Especially the fact that they're blocking things that are "tasteless". I'd like to know who's opinion THAT is, concerning what's tasteless and what's not.

It is so pathetic schools do this, my school does it to almost everything, I wish someone could hack into mueller college and stuff everything up for them, it would greatly be appreciated.

It's so annoying. When I finally find an unblocked game site on the school computer, it always ends up being a crappy site that just has crappy Miniclip games on it! IT'S SO ANNOYING
