In a way I feel for the kids because the adults should have taken the lead on making sure the computer was safe. But, then I would argue the kids and their parents had reasonable expectations to privacy which were callously disregarded by the school and the tech. I’m just glad we homeschool. I don’t need another reason to be paranoid about the safety of my kids...
The adults should have put their foot down and refused to have their kids saddled with such a onerous burden.
