ya that's the way I look at it. I don't have a problem with schools installing cameras everywhere in the school (except toilet/dressing rooms of course) - and that's probably a good idea anyway for safety reasons plus it might help keep the kids in-line and the teachers to actually teach. But the school has no biz spying on the kids at home. I know that kids are getting in trouble at school now if they post something on facebook that the school doesn't like too - which is also stupid.
