Ways to get around school internet blocks?

Hello All!

Currently my school block all kinds of websites, even Reddit and Discord! They block anything that can allow you to get around the block and any websites that involve things like VPN's, Proxies and a lot of tech related things... How could they!

Therefor they block the vast majority of VPN's, though I've only tried a few proxies that seem to be blocked too.

Currently I've been doing this on my chrome book, but soon (within a month) I'm going to be getting a semi-gaming laptop (win 10)

Anyone have any ideas on how I can get around these blocks? Main priority is getting through to Discord...

Thanks

Realising that you should perhaps be doing the work?

Have you tried turning it off and on again?

Why can't you use a phone with a mobile data connection?

Even so. If you were supposed to be doing and were allowed to do such things at school, they wouldn't be blocked.

Yes, it is. If it's blocked, it's something you shouldn't be doing at school. If you're concerned about your passwords... maybe you shouldn't be entering them on a network you don't trust, period?

If there is a security measure to stop you from playing around with Discord in the first place that's already something you shouldn't be doing, go read some wikipedia articles if you're bored, learn something, this is a school after all your "breaks" are at home.

Wow, I don't get the animosity here. As if one shouldn't be allowed to use the breaks between classes however they see fit.

Hand, n. A singular instrument worn at the end of the human arm and commonly thrust into somebody’s pocket.

They're welcome to use their breaks as they see fit. On their own internet connection.
