no one gives a shit what kids are doing on their devices

Except Joe. And people like Joe. Whose surveillance of kids is now not only easier, but sanctioned.

Exactly. It’s like a tacit admission that the only reason to have this stuff is for people like Joe.

my highschool has 1,500 kids and 2 IT guys. We have over 100 broken laptops rn. They're overworked minimum wage workers like everyone else working at public schools. They don't even look at what kids do. I've seen only 1 story in the 4 years I've been in HS where someone actually got in trouble for messing with stuff on the computer and it was because they were trying to brute force a network password they didn't have access to.

kids looking at porn on their school laptops is why the tools exist, not for pedos. 'Joe' is 0.001% of people, not the majority!

That’s a number you just made up.

Either way, use a blacklist then. If you really care about what sites they access, use a whitelist.

They do.

That’s a number you just made up.
