The attack of the creepsters

Feb 27, 2010 21:31

Creepy creepy creepy. A school gave its students free laptops but what they didn't tell the students, is that that the school could covertly turn on the webcams at any time. Then they used evidence from the webcams to punish the at least one student for something he did at him. Allegedly. But damn! What on earth were they thinking filming students ( Read more... )

I don't think I've ever seen Strawberry Shortcake looking so scary (and fierce). I like it!

That's scary about the school turning on web cams without permission. It makes me glad my PC doesn't have a webcam. I can imagine what lawsuits will come from this. I hope people in Philadelphia won't have to pay higher taxes to pay the settlements.

Me too! Much better than this, but sadly I don't think it would ever be a tv series... sigh! I want to see her kicking ass and retaking the world from the Smurfs.

As I was writing this, I keep an eye on my webcam, which I have never used and I have no idea how to use, but... yeah. I would have figured most places (especially a larger area like Philadelphia) have money set aside for lawsuits, considering how people *love* to sue (though justified in this case).

This is in MY district (my college is in Lower Merion). *facepalms*

That whole thing with the laptops is just bizarre. I do wonder if it is legal since I think you need a warrant to do something like that without the person's knowledge.

I know! Plus this was the school spying on people, not the police, so they have no right at all. Spying on underage people as well...

Bad plan all around. I hope someone gets fired over it.

I can only imagine they will, but I guess if they have excellent lawyers they still might be able to teach. Who would ever want to hire them, is another question.

I KNOW, I KNOW D: WHY SO CREEPY, TEACHERS... I CAN'T BELIEVE THIS ISN'T JUST AN URBAN MYTH OR SOMETHING.

It is! I wouldn't mind a poster or two of it on my walls *__*
