wait wait... you said something along the lines of her being out of control and doesnt listen to anyone?
Well lets see smart-guy... apparently she was dumped off by her uncaring mother into a dictatorship house. Hmmm and shes acting out? I dont suppose anyone has suggested she may need some help coping with the situation shes in?
Then you pile your facists crap on her?
Jeebus she can move into my house... he love people, not control them.

Someone in your house needs counselling. Either you are an overprotective control freak and need help or your neice has some serious issues and needs help. For some strange reason I get the feeling that a group or family counselling session couldn't hurt.
From the facts you've given it sounds like a permanent ban from all things electronic is overreacting, but I don't really know the background so it's not really my place to say.
Once again, seriously look into family counselling.

Not every person on the web is a horrid,evil child abuser.Why not simply sit down with the kid and have a few talks about using the web safely?
Btw,my kids enjoyed the web,including online games and chat and even met a few folks from online but they did so in sane,safe ways and I knew about it.
I think education is a lot more effective than prohibition. I'd rather have a kid chatting openly on AIM in my living room than sneaking off to a friend's house and never discussing any of their activities with me.
as soon as you turn into a raving idiot fatass with nothing better to do than talk about your sh!tty van and how awesome your home network is, while also complaining on a regular basis about how much more educated you are than the entire IT staff of your *High School* and how piss poor their network is compared to yours.
Oh, and when your girlfriend gets double-tapped on a boat by a couple of gangbangers voluntarily.
Wait - where is sh!t supposed to come from, if not from the anus? Other than that, thread over.
Declared winners: People that think I'm wrong

People that need better material before going on the offensive: Everyone that referenced my ex getting tag-teamed on a boat.
I think you went over the top. I would set up a computer that you've personally stripped down to the bare bones. Word processor, spreadsheet, printer. No internet access. If she needs to "look something up", let her use a supervised computer, meaning you should have an adult keeping an eye on her while she is surfing for the information. Then that PC will be locked down preventing her from using it on a regular basis.
That is just my opinion though. It sounds like you have some issues with teachers though that need to be resolved, and those issues are external to this situation.
Teachers are supposed to be heros, but we pay them like chumps. For the most part, you can't attract hard working, dedicated, intelligent people to a job that won't pay more than $30K a year.

Actually, I'm of the opinion that she needs MORE punishment, not less. You have to really watch these 5th graders; give 'em an inch and they'll take over your world. I would suggest chaining her to a secured, bolted-down object during any point in time where she is not under your direct supervision. In addition, do not allow her to speak unless spoken to, and be sure she isn't allowed such frivolous recreational activities as watching tv, making friends, or playing outside. To encourage the proper respect, teach her to salute you every morning, and be sure that any slightest behavioral violation is duly recorded and severely punished.
For the most part, they ARE chumps around here. All the old, near-retirement ones that can't handle the city kids

One would hope this is a joke, but you never know. If this is for real, we now know the Fourth Reich will start in Hicksville, Maryland.
