schools spying on kids at home

thanks to the good people at boingboing for uncovering this week's topic in school news...
brought to you by the not so good people of lower merion school district in pennsylvania who decided that one way to handle their "bad kids" was to have its schools use student laptop webcams to spy on the little bastards not just at school but at their homes as well...
1984?
nope...it's 2010 in the nanny states of america!
oh this cannot be...it's absurd...crazy...ridiculous..there's just no way...
WAY! and it's even worse than you think when you read the actual civil court filing...
"next week on 'to catch a predator' chris hansen surprises 7th grade social studies teacher at home sitting by her computer, sipping on a glass of cabernet, watching her favorite little bad boy get ready for bed..."
this is worse than robot teachers invading the classrooms!
