I've been chatting with some people I met on the internet.  I've been safe, not giving my address or anything like that.  My mother became mad and keeps taking my laptop away.  I bought the computer completely on my own.  Does she have the right to take it from me?  I'm 17 now.

No.
She doesn't have the right.
If you bought it on your own it's yours.
Not hers.
ESPECIALLY if you're seventeen.

Yep, she has every right. As long as you're living under her roof, she can do whatever she wants to you

She doesn't have the right, but there's nothing you can do about it.  You can't say she stole it, all you can do is complain.  Basically, there's no point and you and your mom need to reach a compromise.

I've got spurs that jingle jangle jingle.
As I go riding merrily along.
And they sing, "Oh, ain't you glad you're single?"
And that song ain't so very far from wrong.

Well there is not a right answer to your question.  I would think if you are still living at home, not paying rent or buying any of the food that your parents have some responsibility for you.

She is apparently trying to prevent you from doing something that she knows could potentially be dangerous to you.

We are only hearing one side of the story.  You may be immature and irresponsible for your age.  There may be other factors that we don't know about when she made the decision.  

I would suggest that you cool it until you are on your own.

Honestly, parent's have no complete control over their kids. Parent's will eventually pressure kids to much and they will lie to get where they are going.

Like someone said, out of respect you should obey and listen to your parents. We may not appreciate them now or give a flying flop what they say or think, but we will later.
