    When I was quite young I was trying to figure out how to play games on a school computer and must have set off some red flags because the IT guy came in and asked what I was doing.

        Sure there's not much more to it. I think it was a Mac and I was trying to get around the administrative privileges.

        On a similar note a different school used Windows but had a pretty good blocklist of sites that had anything to do with gaming or social media. I really wanted to browse some game review but didn't have another way because of how prohibitively expensive mobile data was at the time and ended up using Tor.

        I never heard anything about it but it's funny to think I used it to read Metacritic reviews.
