According to a lawsuit filed in Federal court last week, the Lower Merion school district, in a suburb of Philadelphia, used the Mac laptops it had supplied 2,300 pupils to spy on them at home. The school used a remote control webcam feature on the laptops to take pictures of the students without any form of parental permission. A student was shown a picture taken in this manner by the assistant school principal and told he was behaving in an inappropriate fashion.
It is deeply ironic that this outrage occurred in Philadelphia, home of the Liberty Bell.
The "land of the free" had better watch out; before long there will be no liberties left.
