“Sign in as *name from school account*”
I hate that. I wish I never logged into my school account on my personal device.

This just happened a few hours ago:

One of the desktops in a classroom had a reeeallly botched install of some firewall. There's a network firewall, but also one installed on the desktops (that means they're more strict) which was blocking almost everything, including the entirety of google.com and its subdomains, and even the “this page is blocked” page itself! (the text would load, but no images or css)

To clarify, the botched firewall was causing google to be blocked?

It caused almost everything to be blocked

My school hasn't blocked chess.com yet. Last year everyone was playing chess in class, so I would have expected it to be blocked this year. I guess not

Your school system might have a chess club somewhere that uses it!

How do you use a VPN? I've been struggling to get around the blocking of many websites, and I want to use my school Chromebook that is way more portable and easier to handle than a traditional PC.

Here's my local device info if you need it at all:
My browser / operating system: ChromeOS 14541.0.0, Chrome 126.0.0.0, No Flash version detected

I want to use the Chrome VPN built inside it.

You can't for that exact reason.

If you want to use a VPN (of any kind- if Chrome's is blocked on a Chromebook you're not changing that), then this is greatly simplified if you can use browser extensions (although if you can we can't tell you how because the ST doesn't want them mentioned on the website…). Otherwise… there are ways, but they're slow, run slowly, aren't guaranteed to work, and may also be blocked.

This being said, you could probably boot a different OS if you know a few tricks, but if you don't own the Chromebook that's a bad idea.

Cmd prompt isn't blocked but of course there is no admin. Some sites are blocked but turbowarp isn't. Also I can install any extension on chrome.

change your password. My school has student id passwords, and i changed mine
