You have no doubt heard about this by now... the PA school district that used a student's laptop to spy on him and the subsequent denials.
This is a wake up call, World.
If you can possibly pull yourself away from Americans Idle, there might be some wisdom here.
There you are - try to focus.
This is what the district *revealed*.
Regardless of how this pans out, I strongly suspect there is an IT department with some very interesting pictures. And I speak as the head of an IT
department.
Anybody with a modicum of sense needs to think of this event as a microcosm of what's really going on, with computers at very least.
Yeah, the laptops were not used to spy. And Google would never keep your personal information. Large corporations give you things strictly due to
altruism. The government is not monitoring all electronic communications.
Pay attention. What little privacy (and dignity) you have left is slipping away and you're not awake enough to notice it happening.
