Highschool had filters to prevent students from visiting certain (most) sites, but for some reason a browser created using Visual Basic Studio's browser template worked just fine. At least I think that's what it was called. It's been a minute.

People like myself who, perhaps, set up an Nvidia Shield as a Plex server can't really use it. I don't want my main PC running all the time to serve JF, and the Shield was a cheap and convenient way to serve Plex. If the Shield could serve JF, then that would be different, perhaps.
