So my school has taken it upon itself to block every non-education website using the iBoss filter. Sadly this conflicts with my overall school goals. Does anyone know how to get past iBoss?
They fucking blocked wikipedia! Im not trying to look at pr0nz at school, I merely need to be able to do school related projects without having to spend half an hour trying to find school approved sites.marter said:Stop trying to go on sites you aren't supposed to at school. Save them for when you are at home.
Failing that, find a good proxy site and stick with it until your school catches on. Then find another one and repeat the process until school is over.
To be fair, Wikipedia isn't really a site you want to be including in your reference list. At my school, they dock you a mark for having it there.Not So Tuesday said:They fucking blocked wikipedia!

I don't actually cite wikipedia as a source. I use it to get a background on the topic and to find solid resources by going to the bottom of the page and looking at the references.marter said:To be fair, Wikipedia isn't really a site you want to be including in your reference list.

That what I end up doing as well. Is "Answers.com" blocked?Not So Tuesday said:I don't actually cite wikipedia as a source.

Not sure, I've never heard of it. I'll try it out next time I'm at school. Thanks for all the help to everyone in this thread.marter said:That what I end up doing as well.

Haha, I have a similar story. In 6th grade, my friend was joking saying that pen-island.com was a good game site for school. Of course, most caught on and knew it meant penis-land.com. Except for one person, who actually did that, but I don't think he was caught.Urgh76 said:Lol at school filters. My friend was next to me IN ELEMENTERY SCHOOL and he typed in what he thought was ask.com. Turns out he hit "ass.com"
It was a pornsite and unblocked.
WTF THEY BLOCK GAMES BUT PORN IS FINE?!?!
Since it's story time, back in in 8th grade for me, if you went to Altavista.com, go to images, and searched for "lobster" a naked girl would pop up holding two giant lobsters...lolTheYellowCellPhone said:Haha, I have a similar story.

I have no clue how to bypass school-censors, so I'm no help.
Accidentally typed in ass.com. Sure.Urgh76 said:Lol at school filters. My friend was next to me IN ELEMENTERY SCHOOL and he typed in what he thought was ask.com. Turns out he hit "ass.com"
