SCHOOL FIREWALLS
MY SCHOOL DOES NOT BLOCK LJ.
THEY BLOCK GOOGLE IMAGES THOUGH.
BUT REGULAR GOOGLE IS UNBLOCKED.
Pretty cool, school.
At one point Subeta wasn't blocked either. The images were but the site itself wasn't. But now the site is so ):
BUT YEAH LJ ISN'T. I believe they have all sites with "games" in the meta tags blocked, as well as Google Images specifically. Actually, not even that, they just block the images from Google images. You can go to the Google Images tab and search but all the images are broken. ]:|
Why Google Images? Because they caught a kid once looking up porn on it or something. YES, ONE ISOLATED INCIDENT AND THEY BLOCK WHAT IS BY FAR THE BEST IMAGE SEARCH ENGINE IN EXISTENCE. Picsearch and Getty Images aren't blocked but Picsearch is a steaming pile of fail that makes me cry tears of blood and Getty Images is only for stock photos, and isn't actually a search engine per se.
I don't even know how Picsearch manages to fail as much. It just really, really does. And I don't believe that the thing they show as the top searched each day are at least half made up because they are SO RANDOM sometimes.
I hate picsearch as much as Charles Babbage hates muscians. */Hark, a vagrant reference*
ALSO, When I realised I forgot my flashdrive where I saved the project we're working on in class right now, the first thing I thought of was to see if LJ was blocked. I blame
