A dev recently discovered a browser built into the settings (for any google app that lets you edit settings). From there you can bypass parental controls or enterprise restrictions.

This is a pretty exciting "extra feature", Google!

This is kinda funny. During a family vacation as a kid, I went down to the hotel business center to use a computer kiosk but it required payment. I was bored so I was clicking around on the locked screen's hotel logo and got to their company about page, and a bit more link clicking eventually got me out of the company's website and to a google search page. I browsed for free for what seemed like an hour and did it again the next day before we went home.
