I really hate where technology is going an how kids aren't raised right thus being too irresponsible to handle simple tasks. My brother's school finally sent an e-mail out about the students inappropriately abusing the laptops. I thought this would of been an issue much sooner in the school year. They received the laptops in like September. As per usual the children were taking nudes and sending it to others, which from there kids were forwarding it to others. Ugh.....
I'm so happy my brother has black tape on his webcam so that way if it was even hacked into, nothing would be seen.

I remember reading on one of those "what is the creepiest thing you've found on the Internet" threads on /r/askreddit that some guy once stumbled upon a website that had a globe on it. If you clicked on a country, and eventually to a city, you could look at people through their hacked webcams. Anywhere in the world, just people doing whatever. Creepy.

I'm still surprised they give out laptops in grade school now. Like what was the problem with using text books. If you need computer access go to the computer lab duh. I'm sure the kiddies all have smartphones nowadays to look shit up on anyway. If you've ever seen that movie Idiocracy I'm pretty sure that's what our future society is going to be like lol.

That movie great. Lol. But, see the problem is the school had goven children the laptops because eventually that is going to replace their textbooks. Everything will be done online/off a server....so SAD.

Well maybe like a kindle or something that just reads e-books would be better suited. A laptop just seems like a bit much.

Yeah but they can't do their schoolwork with a tablet as efficiently. They do much much more than read text books. All their assignments are becoming electronic as opposed to paper handouts. Kids can type mich faster with a laptop & it is easier. The tablet thing just wouldn't work for many reasons. Which is a shame because it would be a much safer solution.
