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.
gollark: Now, they aren't entirely stupid so you get a separate temporary account without your usual files and whatever to work on for the duration.
gollark: Part of them is done on actual computers, as they are slightly modern.
gollark: That reminds me of the excellent security of my school's computer science exams.
