Did anyone on /a/ have a filter on the family computer when they were younger?pic related
Nope, parents didn't know shit.
For about two days, before we realized that we couldn't go ANYWHERE without getting blocked.
I only bought my computer when I moved out, so no.
my parents didn't know how to get to the real internet outside of aol
I ran the network connection at home.If there was any form of filter, I was the one who put it up.I never put up a filter.

Nope.Minus the ones on the school computers. Those were annoying as fuck.
My mom didn't computer back in her day and still doesn't. I have my own computer and I hope nobody decides to go through it and ask what the fuck.
Nope, been looking at porn since I was 8 years old.
My parents didn't, and still don't know how to operate a computer.
>>34012773We realized that we couldn't go anywhere without getting blocked. The difference between us is that my folks decided this was acceptable.
>>34012865Pretty much. I starting watching porn at 10.I almost wish my parents had put on a filter.
We did, but I got around it in 5 minutes
>>34012865This. I remember the first time I looked at porn. My parents don't know much about using their computers. But my mother decided to take my netbook, (a birthday gift) and started using the internet everynight she comes back from work. Luckly, she only knows how to email through MSN and look at purses in sites like Gucci. Its only a matter of time before my mother decides to go on my desktop computers.
I had a talent for guessing friends and family passwords, so I just removed them. They'd use the stupid predictable stuff- pet names, birthdates, nicknames, etc. Kinda all pointless really.Porn back then was crazy. Anything I found was good.Now it's all about anime with innocent girls I can respect and they make cute faces and it tricks my mind into feeling like I'm in a real relationship.
My stepmother tried that shit once. I ended up fucking up the PoS computer we had at the time trying to get rid of it then got a new computer. She didn't try the filter shit again.
no
Yes, but I figured out the password, and then we just got rid of it.
Filters are waste of time. Its only used because parents become over-protective. Even an Elementary School kid could crack a filter if they spend some time with google.
>>34012865this, but i start with some playboy magazines (it was 1993).
No, so I was plenty traumatized when I googled Digimon fanart
>>34012723Not on the family computer, no. It's always been too easy for me to find a workaround for.Hell, I got around the one in primary school, and got around the one the entire damn COUNTY uses in Comprehensive school.Funny thing though?I don't watch porn.
No, but I turned out fine, right, RIGHT?
>>34013223HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA, for me it was the same, but with pokemon.
Not about porn but somewhat related.Well back then computers had this small key that prevented they keyboard from being used even though it was plugged in. Found a way around it by using a fork.
Nope, my parents didn't give a fuck.
My parents got Net Nanny but then got frustrated and got rid of it.
My first porn was futa (I googled dragon ball porn) so I thought that girls had dicks. Later when I found real porn I was quite disappointed.
>>34013342You, sir, are an internet hero.
>>34013342don't worry, there's always traps
>>34013342Fucking DragonMoonX, man. That site is actually still around.

No, parents didn't know about that kind of stuff.It was a porno wonderland.
A looooooooooooooong time ago, maybe around 4th gradeish, when we had dial-up, my parents/older brother wouldn't give me the password to get on and do whatever I liked, like go onto some website that looked like a Pokedex and read about all the awesome Pokemans.About a month or so later, when I got on the computer, I noticed that the icon to open the dial-up connected had been renamed to some gibberish. It was the password. I logged on with it and told my parents about having found out about it later, but nobody ever bothered to change the password.No restrictions since.
I saw porn in my friends houseproblem solved
No but, my uncle ( the one who set up the internet, the computer and everything ) was well aware of what i was seeing on the internet, mostly because i didn't even know what a navigation history was.Oh the shame when he decided to bring the topic up, thank god he never spoke a word about it to my parents or anyone else for that matter.
>>34013980that suck's
bump
Nope, my parents never set up a filter and luckily I didn't find any of the sick stuff for a good while.
I was too busy dieing from fording rivers and dysentery for my parents to even worry about it.
>>34014832Oregon Trail?
Parents put a password on the computer so it wouldn't ever go past the Windows XP screen after I was playing too many online games with DIALUP.Seriously I was so happy when we got comcast in 05.
>>34014903yep
When I was a kid, we had AOL and my mom restricted me to "AOL for Kids" filter level. And I had this routine of thinking to myself saying "Crimson Lighting!" everytime I see a website link that I was interested in was blocked, as if I was trying to destroy the filter. (Note that I was watching Digimon Adventure series a lot at the time)Eventually my mom got rid of the filters and eventually got rid of AOL, and I've never been under one since.
>>34013605yes it is
