IM BEING KIDNAPPED BY GNOMES

I was doing my homework on my computer outside, and all of a sudden, two gnomes jumped at me. One of them had a metal bar, and the other one had a rocket launcher. They told me to come with them, or they would blow me up. I got taken into their van, and I saw them selling my personal info to Grokapedia. Then they threw my into a garage that was the size of two closets and said my ransom was tonight PLS HELP!

They saw my brother's credit card number

They saw my brother's credit card number, and now he's in debt.
My brother was using my (Sybau University) school laptop to make card payments, and as he was typing in his credit card number, uncensored, and a classroom was online, the school saw it. Later that month, he received hundreds of online purchase payments ranging from $20 to $ 1,000+. After many calls, the payments got refunded, but now his insurance is through the roof.
He's now living at our mom's house because he couldn't afford to pay rent.

This Thing Is Actually Creepy

This thing is actually creepy, spying on me for 24 hours. And it blocks things that aren't necessary to block. Like one time, I open my Chromebook and the moment I was on Google it got BLOCKED! And sometimes it blocks things I'm SUPPOSED TO BE DOING! And even when I'm outside the school building, it still watches me. And when I need to go to the bathroom, I have a limit on when I need to go. WHY DOES THAT THING NEED TO BE NECESSARY! My bladder would be done for when I realize that I can't go to the bathroom. I miss those times when I had to raise my hand to go to the bathroom. My bladder would boil like water in a pot. I cannot be human anymore and go to the bathroom like normal. I guess thats all I have to say now.

Where do I begin

Where do I begin? Maybe where it blocks LGBTQ resources and unblocks anti LGBT resources? Sounds like a good place to start. It's incredibly insulting.

Thank you Securly...

Thank you Securly for watching me 24/7 and blocking everything that is completely harmless. I will also like to thank you for blocking Cool math games and blocking the safe search "Was GTA 6 dayled again" because that is soooo bad and should be banned all across America and lastly... THANK YOU FOR MAKING MY LIFE WORSE FOR NO REASON!

Side note: It's a little funny on how I can't search up anything but meanwhile I can WATCH HAZBIN HOTEL ON MY CHROMEBOOK like, how does that work????

SOME PEOPLE ARE OBVIOUSLY LYING IN THEIR REVIEWS

I see so many people writing essays about how securly has ruined their lives and I just want to say, its not that bad. Honestly, I find it hard to believe that their spying on you, and even if they are, some of these reviews are just wrong. Like, I saw a review that was complaining about GAMES, OBVIOUSLY SECURLY BLOCKS GAMES. SERIOUSLY what has happened to the population, if some student is complaining about GAMES being blocked at school.

With that being said, securly does block some good sites, such as google maps (for me), or sometimes research websites, but not as often as some of these reviews make you believe. But its an AI, and it will make some mistakes. EVERYONE JUST CHILL. ITS NOT THAT DEEP. Its quite bad but some of the reviews are just actual attention bait.

Securly is TERRIBLE

Genuine ass. I can't look up the meaning of the "naked eye," but I can search up the most gory shit ever, and it wouldn't even be blocked. And I get they want to block games, but having two versions on this Chromebook is absolutely diabolical. It slows the Chromebooks down so badly and replaces the fast loading with that stupid ass 3 blue dotted black screen.
