Hey, remember when College and University were for adults? What’s next, permission slips for field trips? I’d feel so fucking insulted if the administration of the school I had gone to had decided they knew what was best for me to view online.

They’re not banning it from your devices, they’re just banning it from their managed networks, just like a lot block porn and other “undesirable” content

When i was in school in the 2000s file sharing basically crippled the campus network until it was banned.

Still, it’s unnecessary and controlling. Is there a context where the use of the network for undesirable, but not illegal, activity that wouldn’t get you into trouble anyways? Its really not the institutions business what people do in their dorms or on campus faculty housing that doesn’t impact other people or endanger the network/school.
