it absolutely sucks. ruins the whole experience.

Linewize is terrible, Linewize is spyware and blocks educational sites and educational games. You cant even look up anything about drugs & alcohol use for a project.

Here's a tip: DO NOT INSTALL IT!

First, it blocks a lot of useful sites like EDUCATIONAL games. It also blocks AI indiscriminately.

Next, when this extension was active, it used over 2.6 G of memory, which made my computer freeze and work at 0.02 FPS. No sites will load during that phase.

Finally, this extension also allows parents to see your browsing activity, which they CERTAINLY don't need to see.
-----
Simple overview:
-Blocks useful sites
-Slow downs computer significantly
-Silently reports browsing activity
-----
Edit: When I visit a blocked site (which is pretty much every time and every site, including embedded frames and APIs) it sends my parents a message. This app is creepy

this stupid program gave me aids and hepatitis and heart disease. it made me get into 5 different altercations pay my med bills plssss

blocks things that are NECESSARY

literally teachers have to work around things such as videos needed for lessons being blocked from policies by making you download them onto your device to see them. don't forget the part where it's literal Spyware either

The only thing it does is make teachers have full control over the apps that you are using to block your internet and if they forget you are permanently banned from the internet and if you google basicly anything it gets blocked

I mean its not the best way of protecting kids i mean people after middle school should know to not talk to random people online so 2 stars to the wost but also not the best.

Literal spyware.

This application has apparently decided that anything and everything related to the Toronto Jazz Festival is inherently evil. That's how bad the filtering is.
Need I say more?
It's too late for me to write a full review.

Real Date of experience: Most of my life

It kept blocking roblox even it's not a THREAT!

I am a student, and this is my personal thoughts of living with a restrictive web fliter.

Linewize is a good idea in theory, but it falls short because it blocks much more than the essentials, Violent sites, games, etc. It blocks educational sites, and that is a problem, in addition it also flags harmless things, espically in the context of research for a project, like for example, if you looked up drugs for a ¨Dangers of Drugs¨ project, it would flag it-no matter the context BEHIND it. I think linewize should listen to the students and teachers who have to deal with this, and if they did, learning would be easier. But right now, I hate Linewize, and it is a horrible thing.

I can’t find a summary about animal farm, but I can play schoolcaust

The Linewize stack has spyware inside the software and invades peoples privacy and is even stored and logged in cloud

It constantly tracks everything you do. It has no context. In a mandatory essay research on, say, WWII, if your search contains a word it doesn't like, it sends it to everyone in the district. It is able to watch your screen, close your tabs, turn off internet, and send everything you do to your teachers.

once I googled Neil the seal ( a freaking seal ) ts got blocked from googling a freaking seal it was for a assignment freak you Inman elementary for using this shit

Linewise shows teachers a live view of student's devices, including at home. This is not a firewall, it remote desktop, that you can't turn off.
