Suburban Philadelphia school spied on students via laptop webcams, lawsuit says

 

 

— A federal lawsuit accuses a suburban Philadelphia school district of spying on students at home through school-issued laptop webcams.

 

The suit says Lower Merion School District officials can activate the webcams remotely without students’ knowledge. The lawsuit alleges the cameras captured images of Harriton High School students and their families as they undressed and in other compromising situations.

 

Families learned of the alleged webcam images when an assistant principal spoke to a student about inappropriate behavior at home.

 

Superintendent Christopher W. McGinley did not immediately return a message left by The Associated Press.

If I knew they did that, I wouldn't say anything.. I'd just make sure I had my laptop up and running when I have a girl in my room and stuff..

 

Or I'd jerk myself watching porn on it ....

 

I would just make it uncomfortable for them

And they wouldn't dare to pull me into office sayin shit cuz thats when I'd sue em

Wow, high schools are issuing laptops to students now a days? I really feel old now. When I was going through High school we had a typing class that used typewriters and we didn't have computers there until my Junior year. At that time comps were still a big mystery to the general public and only families that were really well off could even consider a comp. Now they issue them to students like text books.
