GUESS WHO FINALLY CONVINCED HIS PARENTS TO LET HIM DELETE A MASSIVELY BATTERY-DRAINING, CONSTANTLY-MALFUNCTIONING PARENTAL CONTROLS VPN THAT HAD BEEN ON HIS PHONE FOR ≥6 YEARS!!!!!
#I am a WHOLE ADULT & it STILL took negotiating with my parents that I'll pursue Life Goals for this basic freedom but this is still a Win#TIL that whenever I told my parents what a dysfunctional battery-drain qustodio is mom assumed I was lying to convince her to get rid of it#or at the very least greatly exaggerating. but nope it was really that shitty (and really easy to work around)#that shit used to delete all apps except factory default EVERY NIGHT & return them to the home screen in the morning completely disorganized#it also blocked any websites or apps my parents hadn't whitelisted and imposed time limits on the ones they had#all this time I've had to use tumblr by turning the vpn off every minute or so when it automatically switches back on. hellish#even now I keep habitually checking if it's on before I hit post to make sure my typing won't just be lost#another perk is that I don't have to worry about my parents seeing every website I go to or search term I search#they can still see all my texts and get notifications when I text a number they haven't approved but who cares lol#I'm free!!!#mossy’s musings
