For those of you who can't run the video, here's what it says:
The state of Arizona has violate my free rights
By taking away the Internet
And from going everywhere in town.
Someone tell the school to take away my Internet that violate the 1990 Americans with Disabilities Act.
I am a good disabled college student who talk to people everyday.
I listen to people idea and follow the rules.
I did nothing wrong to the people. Just a good guy who study hard everyday at home and college.
The End By James Deibler
Is there anyone out there to advocate for you? This sounds like real discrimination--especially that they keep you from going where you want to go. If you're a college student, you're over 18--they haven't any right to do that to anybody, disabled or not.
Parents often keep children from using the Internet if they believe it's interfering with studying. However, for you as an autistic person, the Internet could be a valuable communication tool... something they shouldn't take. How are your grades?
I want to know more about the situation.
Why did they say they weren't letting you have Internet access?
How does this violate the ADA?
Why do you need Internet access?
Who told the school to take away your Internet access?
Why do they prevent you from going places?
If it is because of your autism, could they make some sort of accomodation which allows you to go into town?
How are you accessing the Internet now? Can you keep doing it this way?
Right. It's just a subject-verb agreement thing.
Oh, try Googling "James Deibler". I got quite a lot of results.

Indeed, it is common policy in many schools to block internet access in some situations, such as in class when you should be working. How that "violates anyone's rights" is beyond me 
I wonder if this is the same James Deibler that wants a bill named after himself and all to help fund special education and cure autistic children and adults and has a girlfriend that someday wants to marry an autistic before she feels she can help out?
Yes... that would be interesting to know. That's what I found out with Google, too; but I wanted someone else to confirm it.
If it does turn out to be the same person, by the way, remember that he has a right to his opinion just like we do to ours. Which means that anyone who doesn't respect that is going to get a piece of my mind. (Hey, I'm not a mod... that's all I *can* do. But be nice anyway, ok?)
Internet access isn't a right. If however there is actual discrimination going on that may be different. I second DogBrain's suggestion - talk to an attorney. However, it is common for schools and colleges to block student's internet access at certain times or to certain sites. Censorware in public libraries for adults is a different issue however and one that greatly annoys me personally. AFF has been blocked from my local library and remained block despite complaints and my request to be told what was unsuitable (I know it was a manually added block as it was placed into the misc category and does not turn up in other websense installations). After it got unblocked once, later someone blocked it again.
Autism Speaks must be doing their job then!
(j/k)
Some blocking things are weird like that, one filter blocked Richard Dawkins' site under the claim it was "occult". (I think that was it, it was on the feedback page in New Scientist a long while ago)
They may have mistaken THIS AFF for the OTHER AFF (which is an adult site).

I'm going to refrain from looking this up but it sounds like a *very*playsivle explanation.
Noetic - please don't get me wrong! I have never logged on to the other AFF, I just saw references to it when I first Googled AFF to find this site, and it didn't seem very wholesome. I won't post here what it is.
In the end I found THIS AFF by Googling Aspie.
My son has had his internet access suspended more than once because the school make it SO simple for other students to work out eachothers' passwords that students often use others' accounts when accessing stuff that may lead to them having their own accounts suspended.

LOL no worries just thought it made sense, that's all. And I meant PLAUSIBLE explanation by the way.
How is using a wireless network theft? I always assumed that if they don't secure a network it means that they are fine with other people using it.
So, then, if you don't put a fence around my yard, you're fine with other people using it for whatever purpose they want.
If what I happened to consider "my yard" or "my house" encompassed an area of several neighborhoods and other people's homes, then I would be fine with other people using the area. Regardless, wireless networks don't really compare to tangible items. It's more like broadcasting a private radio station and expecting people not to listen to it.
something i wonder sometimes....will this lead eventually to the corpratiztion of the internet (i.e., you can only visit sites run by big corprate entities and whatever they say goes?) i hope this doesn't mean that the only views you see on the net are the same ones that run the media and you never get two sides to the story, like ours? if the net was regulated like that, the only thing we get to see is sites that say how bad we need a cure, etc, and nothing good about us.
This may be a misunderstanding as old as Benjamin Franklin. As you may know, in 1721 at the age of 15 Benjamin Franklin was publishing a newspaper called the "New England Courant". He printed controversial editorials and somone wanted to publish opposing opinions and when Franklin refused the man threatened to sue for infringing on his freedom of speech. Franklin replied that freedom of speech does not apply when you are using someone else's printing press. That has been upheld by courts for nearly 300 years now. It applies to schools and businesses that allow students or workers to use their press and their internet access. The owner of the press or the internet access makes the rules. If a person can prove that he was discriminated against because of race, sex or a handicap etc, they may have a point, but it has nothing to do with freedom of speech.
Thanks for that, that's very interesting - I didn't know about this! I did know that freedom of speech doesn't mean you can force others to print or publish opinions that are "out of order" or that violate certain rules, I just didn't know why so many people kept referring to freedom of speech in such situations.
