    They also block adblockers (at least in my area). So I’m trying to find a good laptop for my sister to use next year.

      In case it helps you, I’ve found that the uMatrix extension has been a great way to auto-block all Javascripts while still being able to permit just the ones needed to work past a site or network’s limitations.

      There’s a little bit of a learning curve at first, but nothing too bad. Using the extension also feels empowering, because it gives you much more control than just a flat ‘block everything’ anti-ad approach.

        No the thing is, the school district in my area uses Chromebooks and they’re locked down to the point you can’t download extensions or use another browser.
