According to the filings in Blake J Robbins v Lower Merion School District (PA) et al, the laptops issued to high-school students in the well-heeled Philly suburb have webcams that can be covertly activated by the schools' administrators, who have used this facility to spy on students and even their families. The issue came to light when the Robbins's child was disciplined for "improper behavior in his home" and the Vice Principal used a photo taken by the webcam as evidence. The suit is a class action, brought on behalf of all students issued with these machines.

jez they dont have limits

dav3 · 02-18-2010, 06:41 PM

Was just reading about that on slashdot. It's outrageous to say the least.

pornguy · 02-18-2010, 06:43 PM

Fucking amazing..

Big Chad · 02-18-2010, 06:44 PM

No it's not amazing, people are allowing our rights to slip away.

J. Falcon · 02-18-2010, 06:45 PM

Thats fucking crazy!

alias · 02-18-2010, 06:46 PM

PA has always been a fucked up commonwealth state.

I had a vice principal threaten to suspend me in 6th grade for e-bullying another student over AOL IM.

My mom called her about 5 minutes after I got home and chewed her out. She told the VP that she was wasting my time pulling me out of class to yell at me for something that had nothing to do with school LOL.

That's just fucking outrageous though. You know they're doing inappropriate shit while watching those cameras.

Ayla_SquareTurtle · 02-18-2010, 07:04 PM

They better fire every single person who OK'd that and/or knew it was happening and didn't tell the parents. WTF is wrong with these people??

DBS.US · 02-18-2010, 07:07 PM

They're recording images of underage children without parental consent, undressing in there bedrooms?

goldfish · 02-18-2010, 07:19 PM

Since when can a school discipline a student for something they do at home?!?!?!

Read something similar the other day, honor student, a senior forced off the basketball team, principal said he could punish him for something that happened over the summer but told him he would be making a recommendation to the coach that he be removed from the basketball team.. Was for something stupid and COMPLETELY unrelated to school.

somewhat related, a 12 YR OLDwas ARRESTED(handcuffed and taken to the police dept.) for doodling on a desk in a NY school, she wrote "I love my friends ...." Arrested? For writing on a desk, if I was still in school I would be screwed!

I agree. A school can't discipline a student for something the student did at home.

Unless, the student did a crime against the school while home.

Let's say the student goes home and writes a letter which is all lies. A letter that says a teacher raped a student (but the teacher did not really rape the student). Could the school punish the student for the lie?

What parents would openly allow their kids' schools to spy on their kids and even them within their homes?

The fact that there's a class-action lawsuit for this would show the opposite of what you're saying in this case.

The Heron · 02-18-2010, 07:44 PM

Damn maybe that's how these shady gf sites get their content?!

JD · 02-18-2010, 07:49 PM

sounds like someone's getting the shizzzzyyyyy sued out of them

Great point!

I guess this school district also feels that installing security cameras in locker rooms and bathroom stalls would be A-OK.

Angry Jew Cat - Banned for Life · 02-18-2010, 07:51 PM

Ya, I hope whatever reprimand they take fucking stings. that is an outright invasion of privacy and denial of personal rights.

BURN THEM.

epitome · 02-18-2010, 07:55 PM

My bf just made a good point ... what did we all do six times a day as 15 year olds? Was the school recording these kids doing that as well?

Disgusting!

Sethseekstruth · 02-18-2010, 09:09 PM

Hey, that would be a great idea for a faux amature type site..."see the hot vids we donloaded from REAL laptops". Guess you'd have to make it college laptops or something

No, that is why we have court systems to deal with people, even those underage, that file false police reports or make life/career damaging false accusations.

designerscode · 02-19-2010, 03:17 AM

yeah totally crazy shit... i know the feeling. my old boss used to be that paranoid too haha

Thats pretty sick. I agree with Big Chad. The more people complain, the more they should be marching on their city hall, getting involved with voting and the PTA and get rid of the idiot's trying to usurp individual rights in this country. Dont bitch about it online, DO something. Anything.

tranza · 02-19-2010, 09:46 AM

IllTestYourGirls · 02-19-2010, 12:20 PM

This shit was bound to happen. My school would suspend kids for doing things on weekends OFF school grounds. They government owns your children, people start standing up for their rights now or they will be forever lost.

Maybe your mom should've whooped your ignorant bullying ass instead of getting on the principal......You MIGHT have then learned something....

So thank your mom for fucking you over .....You truly are a "Son of a Bitch".
