A class-action lawsuit has been filed in Pennsylvania accusing the Lower Merion school district of "unauthorized, inappropriate and indiscriminate remote activation" of web cams in laptops issued to students. Assistant Principal Lindy Mastko of Harriton High School allegedly informed a student that he was "engaged in improper behavior in his home. " Mastko allegedly told both the boy and his father that the school district could remotely activate the web cam on student lap tops! The school district initially did not respond to the accusations. Others have alleged that their MacBooks' green webcam lights went on at random times. If the school was eavesdropping, was it an unlawful invasion of privacy? The Lower Merion School District superintendent Christopher McGinley issued an official response acknowledging "a security feature intended to track lost, stolen and missing laptops." However, the web site claims that the school district " has not used the tracking feature or web cam for any other purpose or in any other manner whatsoever" but that the matter is "under review." <br />The school and its officials are presumed innocent unless otherwise proven in a court of law. In the mean time, ask yourself this, how could Legal Pub have timely foreshadowed these problems?Legal Pubhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03464130635305514783noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5166169592714997268.post-73571647136883498082010-02-18T10:55:16.196-06:002010-02-18T10:55:16.196-06:00Katfish, when you are our update on Sheley, we are...Katfish, when you are our update on Sheley, we are all reading and watching.
