And this is why kids should grow up with increasingly restrictive parental control software. It's educational.
You're not wrong. I was so desperate to get online as a kid I was pirating my neighbor's internet on my Nintendo DS with a borrowed copy of the browser, because that was the only hardware I had with wifi access lmao.
Back when I was a kid, I ended up guessing my principal's internet password for our local dial-up. His email was through our local phone company, so his login name was the same.. So I had free internet from 8th grade til I graduated. Eventually, the phone company made it where only one person could be logged in at once, but by then I had the money to buy my own.
My parents weren't home a lot of hours in the afternoon, and I was the oldest, so I had free reign. I kind of miss those days
I still remember the 3 passwords I got over the years. His was "kramer" and the other two were "Ozzie1" and "Chicken1"
