I've been reading this issue from the beginning and it startles me how quickly things have spiraled downhill.
As a high school student myself I have no problem with my parents keeping a "blocker" on the house computers. This "blocker" doesn't mean they're necessarily spying on me it just insures that inappropriate material isn't accessed.
My parents don't bother me with what I do on the internet and plenty of times they've taken away certain restrictions on the blocker so I can visit sites like this one. I'd say my parents are fairly lenient and I'd hope they consider me trustworthy.
Anyway my point is, I've never felt that my "privacy" online was being violated because what is the internet anyway? Not the benchmark for privacy in my opinion at least.
While I value my privilege of using the internet I understand that it is a privilege that depends on my actions. You have to be held accountable by someone. Isn't that the truth with everything in life?
This is my personal opinion in response to the original questions asked by TheMercenary.
Boy, the Cellar sure is interesting
