    Default Big Brother is Watching your Teenagers

    Suit: Pa. school used webcams to spy on students - Yahoo! News

    The key point is while they were out of school & without their knowledge. They had no idea they were being filmed. In their own homes. Not during school hours or on campus. And the school district has access to this... This is beyond voyeuristic. In fact, given that the students involved were minors... Well, I think it's not too hard to see what they could (and I think should) be charged with manufacturing or possessing...



    I sincerely think the school administrators involved in this should be given life in prison without possibility of parole. I'm absolutely serious.

    That is just disgusting, reprehensible and horrible... I mean, kudos to the school for giving legitimately nice laptops to every one of their students, but that is TERRIBLE.

    I wouldn't say that every administrator should get life in prison, but I'm a student with privacy, not a parent, so that would most likely change my opinion... I would, however, do a full investigation, dole out "Sex Offender" charges, and make sure that none of them ever worked with kids again. And definitely a good sized jail sentence.

    That's just ****ing sick.

    Wow.... too much room for abuse!
    Without proof that it was abused little
    will happen under the law. But any
    improper image might have been
    captured via this mechanism. How can
    anyone tell if it was or was not....

    The kids should pick any girl willing to strip in front of the camera, then file a class action against the district for attemting to set up a child pornography business.

    Aside from that if you place any camera in my home filming anything you have violated the right of myself to be secure in my own home. I would own you.

    Unbelievable.

    Well, no, unfortunately it's not.

    I hope, at the very least, that there is a highly publicized lawsuit with a big judgment and that whoever authorized this will see their career in education end.

    Well better to turn their own cameras on them.
    What is good for the goose is good for the gander.

    Besides litigation costs taxpayers money.
    Shame and embarisment is much more satisfying and cheaper too

    Some heads should roll, at least. Maybe even cutting some overhead and saving money.
