Weirdos who had unrestricted access online growing up in the 1990s/2000s: "The children need to have their internet snooped and logged! Evil pedos on every corner! Shock sites! It's an outrage!"

Me when my parents watched my every move online: "If I look one thing up they don't approve of they'll lock me out of my only way of talking to social peers in this rural area. I'm not even allowed to have a screensaver with a password. A flash drive they didn't know about was near treason."

Me whenever I didn't have that spy shit: "Oh wow, this explains a lot to challenge what I was told by them. This explains the concepts of sex better than the books. This tells me the history of the world my family didn't know or didn't want me to know. No wonder they only wanted approved media, it fed me lies they wanted to use."

Also me: ha ha funny pony show they didn't like :3

I deeply cannot express enough that if your family (or any hierarchy for that matter) wants to lock down what you can see, say, or do, disobey them.

You *might* fuck up, but it's better to be free and learn mistakes than repressed or held back and socially outcast from your peers.

Your parents aren't cops. Your boss isn't a cop. The cops are fuckin dipshits. Fuck em all.
