lmao those statements from the websites. it would be fun to do PR for porn (maybe. i didn't actually look into it)

[sandstorm]

Sure.

As long as it doesn't stop me using mega.nz

In Starbucks though? For real?

I don't get people who want to watch porn in public, especially the library. We have barriers but people have gotten through them before. It's been quite a while but still...the general public is gross.

Apparently it’s a big problem in public libraries and I had no idea. While getting sources and writing this, I read an article about Chicago dealing with this nonsense and how someone told security and he responded to the complaint saying he couldn’t do anything about it.

I'm getting my MA in Library Science and people watching porn in the library has definitely come up in discussions and ethics lectures. Particularly banning patrons for it. Luckily, most of my classmates are very against porn being watched in libraries. Though the men tend to be quieter in these discussions.

louis ck probably

I had a professor that had students watch porn in class on the school computers which teachers can monitor from their computer. Men are shameless.

Also I wonder if you just can't use a private VPN. If you have a private, encrypted tunnel, what is your filter going to do if it can't see inside?

[longslowslide]

Wouldn't a VPN connected to a wifi a bunch of people are on be really slow?

[sandstorm]

Yeah, it does.
