Depression = twice in the last month. I have an appointment to adjust my medication.
If the parents took the computer out of the room, told OP that they could not put the computer back in the bedroom, and used parental controls to limit internet access, I would consider moving it back into the bedroom anyway and bypassing the limits as "open defiance".
What is a "used" bedroom? As for flies, buy a pack of fly strips for a couple bucks. That should handle your introductory list of "oppression".
All you are going to do is prove that your parents are right to not trust you. Consider why they don't want you to have it in your room? What happened that they won't allow it? Or maybe you need to prove you can be trusted with it first?
If this was one of my children acting in open defiance like this, the next step would be locking the PC in a closet for a month, and then trying again with it downstairs. To allow them to earn trust back.
This is not the way.
They did warn you that it was your PERMANENT record...

When troubleshooting equipment I sometimes use "evil spirits" or "sunspots" when nothing else makes sense.
I'm feeling the same concerns. I agree with everything the admin said and why they did it, but at the same time the idea that some other person (instance administrators) can decide that I no longer have access to some of the communities I joined bothers me.
It seems the only way to control what I have access to (via federation) is to run my own instance? That's more work than I want to do.
Looking into just putting everything into RSS feeds, but then I cannot contribute anything.
Ugh!!!
Married 30 years. Eyebrow position and, "eh?"
