I go to school yesterday. And they've upped the blocks. I used to have fairly good access on mine because I have a TAFE login. But now, all blogs are blocked, but the worst thing of all...

The boredofstudies is blocked! What will I do in my guidance/career lessons now? And all the other bludgy subjects. The only good thing I can get on is youtube, but I can't watch youtube video's in class.

So now my virtually useless laptop, is now utterly useless. It's just a brick that I'll probably find out in later life has caused me to have some back injury from a too heavy schoolbag.

Epic fail nanny net laptop.

You can stop whinging because you didn't fucking pay for it... Do you school work and feel lucky that you have access to the internet and an education system that makes sure you have access to a computer

It's okay. I got it's working again. Just a once off glitch I guess. And eesh last poster, aren't you being a bit harsh? I was annoyed because I thought it was back to the level of blockage it once was it. Like a museum website being classed i.e Arts/Culture.

And in a roundabout way, couldn't you say my parents paid for it? Through all those years of taxes which a portion does go into public school? So why don't you stop having an irrational rant and I'll stop "whinging" okay?

the school filter is controlled by the NSWDET, not the Rudd Gov't.

blocking sites is a problem in NSW, regardless what PM we have.

stop generalising.

And in a roundabout way you could also argue that those who don't have children who go to school in Australia and/or recently migrated from abroad are paying taxes which go to those laptops.

I used to be annoyed about them knowing that most of them are probably going to be used for games or some other very non-productive use of my taxpayers money but I suppose it's a part of life and I guess it may even encourage 'creativity' in circumventing the system.
