random question

I know that in indiana schools they block anything that has to do with the occult, magick, or spells. The only thing that I've managed to find unblock was witchvox.
As for the libraries in my city, they all aloud magick and pagan sites and have paranormal/occult/magick misc book sections, just tucked away in the back where many can't find them.

same in texas :(

well its the same in most schools in ireland but not in the public libraries:)

I honestly don't know about our schools here in Colorado or the libraries internet. Theres a chance they may block occult sites. On the libraries though we can check out books on the occult. I often have to put books on hold that belong to libraries in other parts of the city but we do have access. I've read almost every single one they offer.

must depend on what part of Indiana you live in. From my school (graduated last year) I could get SoM and many occult sites, and the ones I couldn't reach, I just proxied through, or used a different OS like Ubuntu live CD to get past any filters.

it ticks me off

Very interesting, I didn't know that. Inquiring as to why occult related sites would be my first move if I was in your position.

go through proxies, the school cant keep up with the list of a new proxies being made. they tried that with Facebook.

I think the reason for blocking such content is rooted in religion, which would explain Texas. In the UK (this may apply to Ireland, but I don't know) wicca is a recognized religion so it may be illegal to block such content. However, it's unlikely occult websites will be unblocked in the US until people realize that we aren't Satanists (in the form they've been painted in by the Catholic Church) and that this magick stuff is actually real, which could take a while since nobody believes the scientists who are proving that we aren't a bunch of delusional nutcases.
