my university has banned youtube in the computer labs where computer students can spend their free time. they havent exactly banned it, its just that whenever i try to open youtube the university website pops open. is there a way i can open youtube on the computer i work without any one knowing it. i swear i am only using it to download videos for my presentations.

What would your tutors make of presentations that include material you (probably) have no right to use - copyrighted material?

It would be nearly impossible to access a site without the university being able to find out - my router logs every web page visited, for example.

There are alternatives - internet cafes and a flash drive

agree totally with ethel

If I marked a paper full of ripped clips - it's like regurgitating half a book in your essay to make up the word count - it would get a looooowwwwww mark.
all you are doing is proving that google works - if you stick to uTube .... you aren't even doing that .... just narrowing an already narrow viewpoint

You need to try being original .... or the next texts you learn for presentation will end ...
"and would you like fries and a shake with that?"

as a computer student you should have some inkling (that's a big word isn't it?) of how comprehensive institutional monitoring can be .... given that many of the tools are developed in university ... the likelihood is that it's going to be even tighter

I'll bet you wish you hadn't asked eh? As if you didn't get enough lectures at university, you now have to stomach them on here as well.

ahhh cam

trying to troll a troll are you?
.... you're not very good at it .... and you've had so much practice!
I bet if you look round you can probably find something wittier ..... possibly in a book
(but you are half way there now)
