hawks Posted February 22, 2010 Report Share Posted February 22, 2010 Just another "Big Brother is Watching" example. My wife is a teacher and they provided laptops for them to take home. Now she is having thoughts about hers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

f1ss Posted February 22, 2010 Report Share Posted February 22, 2010 Does not surprise me at all, my senior year they renovated the whole school and they added security cameras inside and outside of the school. I asked the superintendent why they had them inside and she replied "security." Turns out they used them specifically to see when kids were sneaking out of school and catch them when returning. I can see them as use for safety though in school, but on take home laptops ? Dont know if all you heard about the situation here in MA about bullying over IM's and emails and a teenage girls suicide due to ridicule, maybe that is part of the reason Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
