No, lol. She got a ~400 page 'children's encyclopedia' because she liked it and I liked reading. Fairly cheap, and useful if you want to look up something like 'types of volcanoes'. Besides, it was a little home laptop, which my dad used before. I doubt if she had even known how much porn existed on the internet, since we used it rarely and it was terribly expensive (dunno about the US, since I am not an American) at that time. I'm pretty sure the reason she didn't want me using the internet was because kids are dumb and break stuff. Laptop was already sluggish as hell.

Also, it was far easier to just pick up a book you've read many times and find the section you're looking for than turn on the laptop, wait for the damn thing to boot, call an adult to connect it to some outdated Modem that's slow as hell, ask that person to search something because you have no idea how that stuff works and then get some long ass site, summarise it and finish your homework. Just saying. Has got nothing to do with repression, since we also had a book full of paintings and quite a few were nude. If anything, my mum was kind of more open than most since she had a masters in biotech and taught high school science for many years.
