I suspect you'd lose that attitude after a few beatings and/or screaming matches.

Which is usually happens in these situations, unfortunately.

The world is a fucked up place.

Nah, I'm pretty stubborn. Though it would be fairly simple to make a few dummy accounts.

I give passwords as soon as asked and pray my mom doesn't find anything. My mom gets really angry abiut that.

For example, that tike she wanted my sister's iPad password.
My sister told her the password happily, and she tried to type it but failed. My sister said, "Here, let me do it for you." She took the iPad and started writing. At this my mom raised her voice and told my sister to give her the iPad password. My sister started handing it back, and said, "Ok, I will, just calm down."
"CALM DOWN, YOU CALM DOWN! I HAVE A RIGHT TO KNOW WHAT YOUR PASSWORDS ARE! I HAVE TO EDUCATE YOU, PROTECT YOU!" After that, I think my mom ranted for a while and my sis was punished.

Not like I have anything to hide in my facebook. It is purposefully left blank so that she can't find anything against me. I'm really scared of the day she decides to search my computer and iPad, though...
Flailing around that 'right' in the background of 'punishment'. Some people don't understand what they're even saying... :-\
If repeated on and on without explanation on why they say that, and that the child doesn't understand [left to assumption], that is.
Her statements are coming from the situation of a single context, when the situation she's approaching may be of the myriad others...which it won't apply, in the least effectively anyway. As in, how it proceeds...

When I lived with my parents, my dad demanded my Steam password so he could play one of my games, because he was too lazy to simply get it himself. (He had the money to do so, easily)
When I refused, he kicked me off the computer and didn't let me use it again.
Never played a video game again until I turned 18 and left. (Thankfully, that was only maybe a month later)

Yeah, it's classic bullshit. Giving into the demands of such people just increases their hunger for taking it. Not that I'm getting on at people who do. Sometimes there's no other option.

Time to "accidentally" encrypt all of your communication. I will never invade my kids' privacy that way.

I'm really hopeful I can teach my kids about the need for internet security without invading their stuff. I mean, if they're gonna be dumb on the internet, me checking every once in a while won't save them...

Much true. This is pretty much regarded in their personal attitude rather than them being just dumb. Teach them right, in acting as a person, and by being a good role model--and it'll reflect in anyway they go. [of course, add in other factors such as exposure to ideas, and being open-minded as well as tempering towards how to treat 'controversial' ideas and...well, you get the point]

...Both from personal experience and from observations within the community and country here. It's a simple idea of deep rooted thinking. <_<

Been awake ~17 hours, ballparking it. Status: loopy as shit. I had some neat ideas for a story to write... and now that I'm sitting my ass down to finally work on it... I'm drawing a blank. Nothing comes to mind. Poof, gone in a second. Happens even when I've had some rest.

Dummy accounts might be a good idea, actually. Make a few on sites you care about, never use them for anything, and if questioned explain that you just lurk (using terminology they'll understand, of course). You'll probably get yelled at for being "unsocial" or something absurd like that but knowing them they'd find something to yell at you about in literally any context. At least they won't have anything true to get pissy about.

In the days when Sussman was a novice, Minsky once came to him as he sat hacking at the PDP-6.
“What are you doing?”, asked Minsky. “I am training a randomly wired neural net to play Tic-Tac-Toe” Sussman replied. “Why is the net wired randomly?”, asked Minsky. “I do not want it to have any preconceptions of how to play”, Sussman said.
Minsky then shut his eyes. “Why do you close your eyes?”, Sussman asked his teacher.
“So that the room will be empty.”
At that moment, Sussman was enlightened.
