These are different because kids take these computers home, and it’s some random working for a 3rd party monitoring what’s going on.
Creepy.
I feel like that is the bigger problem. These aren't private/personal devices; students shouldn't be treating them as personal devices. Especially knowing it's a monitored device.
Properly educating students on the use of these devices is the solution. Not telling schools to turn a blind eye to the use of their own equipment.
These are fucking kids. They are still learning what devices do and what their appropriate use is. If they are like me, they have probably already found ways to watch porn, monitor their crush's computer, read their email, and get into their webcam.
It's not lack of education.
It's lack of impulse control.
I got into quite a bit of similar mischief as a (pre)teen; but I didn't do any of it on equipment that I knew was monitored (at least, monitored and signed out to me....)
Then you were the exception.
