gollark: One person in my class found out at some point that the security camera control thing was on the internal network with the default password set.
gollark: I don't think it has a good web browser built in?
gollark: I mentioned it to them and they just said not to do that.
gollark: You could also download something like my multicast-based chat program and cheat that way.
gollark: However, as it turns out, they "block internet access" just by denying access to browsers, and you can still use anything else they have for that (which isn't much). Including, say, using Python's urllib to access web things™. Which is quite impractical, but in theory, if I felt cheaty, I could use that to download a less impractical program to browse things.
