I'm currently stuck in a used bedroom infested with flies at the time of writing this.

My parents have decided to block internet whenever I try to move my PC back upstairs. Asking them wouldn't work out because it usually falls on deaf ears.

A few days ago, they moved it without my knowledge, and I noticed that my folding table was gone from my bedroom.

I'm planning to set it back up again, but they might turn my internet off when they catch me. I'm trying to get a few ideas and create a plan to move my PC back upstairs.

I found a few tutorials on getting through parental controls, but the tutorials are done on Windows and parental controls are set up using TP-Link.

The points you raise about trust are good and I agree but "Acting in open defience"? What kind of authority do you have at home

    If the parents took the computer out of the room, told OP that they could not put the computer back in the bedroom, and used parental controls to limit internet access, I would consider moving it back into the bedroom anyway and bypassing the limits as "open defiance".
