Should you have freedom to go on any site in school except for inappropriate ones?

It is also an issue as to who decides what sites are inappropriate

VTunnel and other options will work until the school blocks those sites too.\n\nYou don't want to be the one that get caught...

You don't.  If the school has blocked the site then you aren't supposed to be on it.

Your school does not want you to access that website while you are there. It is unlikely that you will be able to, assuming their filtering software functions correctly.\n\nThe reason should be obvious to you. Not only is myspace.com not remotely related to your studies, allowing you to access it at school could open your district to legal liability should something happen to a student on that site during school.

Schools usually just use a filter so the link will give you instructions on how to do that.  I'd be careful if you don't have 'good intentions' your school could also have a NICE program built in meaning they monitor what you're doing and can tell who's doing it.

the site is fine, there is nothing wrong with it. the blocking is hapenning at your end:\n\nIf you are at school or at work, it means the system administrator, who makes rules on who uses the internet and how.\n\nif you are at home, either a firewall or a child locking program are blocking you. maybe ur parents?\n\nI am able to access the website fine :)

Yes I beleive they should but they should not be allowed to go on to the internet unless its required for the class

Yeah, I think that is an invasion of privacy! I just heard that my old High School is doing that now, to see what kids are doing and checking to see if they ditch school or what not. My younger sisters friend actually got suspended for something he had on his Myspace...I thought that was ridiculous! Just make your profile private...they can't even look at it unless you add them!

I don't think schools have the right to do that but they should educate students about internet predators.

If you use another site to get round it, the school will find out and block that site also. How do you think they knew about Myspace in the first place.

Because it just shows that you are a respectful person.  It's pretty silly only to "behave" when you know you can get into trouble, dontcha think?  Either, way, students can do whatever they want.  However, why bother not behaving when you can just skip when there's a sub?  Hmm . . .

I don't think its technically illegal but it's not wise because you are violating someone else's privacy if you give out their full name.  I'm sorry you got in trouble and I don't think it's the school's place to correct an issue like this unless you did it while you were at school and in that case maybe the issue was more about using this type of website inappropriately. Either way, lesson learned, right? Don't use other people's names even if you're not saying something "bad" it still could be information they'd rather not have posted online.

do what you cannot do during the school days.

If you are desiring greater freedoms, then accept greater responsibilities. While living under someone else's roof, I suggest you abide by their rules. All of the teens on the internet cannot change your parents household policy. I hope they stick to their guns.

Expulsion.  If you're on a kiddee porn site there could be criminal penalties.

if your high school has a website, it should be no problem.

Get expelled/excluded, then you and your silly pals can stay at home on that stupid website.\n\nHave a look at this http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=AsgQ0Xwc7iKY8Q53CicVOt7sy6IX?qid=20061110095119AAoDENh
