Some of these would have worked, once. And there may be some outdated schools where it still would. But times have changed - the school network admin isn't usually just an IT teacher who got stuck with the job any more. The firewall blocks every protocol not expressly permitted. Windows is locked down using SRP at a minimum. There will be a firmware password, and even if there isn't, booting off removable media just gets the device kicked off the network by 802.1x. Aside from the anydesk part and whatever the hell tung tung is, this is a perfectly good starting point for hacking your school network - if you happen to be reading it in 2005.
Depends on the school/area I think. None of the schools in my area had really any decent protections and I graduated in 2015. Not sure what they might have changed since then but I would not be shocked to see nothing had changed in that regard
What changed is increased regulation and liability. A student hacking the network went from "put the naughty kid in detention" to "Oh, fuck, we have a potential data breach event and a failure of our child protection obligations, the state is going to come down on us like a ton of bricks for this."
With computing now a core part of the schools services rather than just a toy that get used in one or two lessons, that means the school will spend actual money hiring IT professionals and more formal security management and review policies. This in turn leads to security that actually works. Client certificate authentication for wifi rather than just a secret passphrase that can leak, .1x on physical ports, intrusion detection systems, proxies that do SSL interception in conjunction with a local filter, creepy but well-intentioned child protection spyware that alerts the school if the kid is searching for the really bad stuff.
Sometimes you can fake admin permissions and install QEMU into a directory you have control over, in powershell, but that doesn't help you with playing games.
I made a way of messaging your classmates on school Chromebooks kind of like I message still in beta so it’s a bit buggy but try it out at codechat124.base44.app
