http://www.philly.com/philly/news/homepage/20100430_School_official_says_Lower_Merion_lacked_laptop_policy.htmlHere are the para's which I find MOST INTERESTING:
"I tried to get the administration to look closely and get a policy on several occasions," Cafiero said in her first interview since the district put her on paid leave. "There was only so much I can do. They did nothing. It fell on deaf ears."
The last time she tried, Cafiero said, was after a technician told her in November that he had activated a student's laptop Web cam even though the computer was not missing.
According to Cafiero, the technician said a Lower Merion High School teacher had pressed him to turn on the camera based on a suspicion that the student was goofing off in class.
Cafiero said she told the technician his job "was not to spy on students" and reminded him that they were to activate the tracking system only for lost or stolen laptops.
She said she brought that incident up on Nov. 10 during a meeting on the laptop initiative with administrators from both district high schools and her boss, George Frazier, director of information systems.

Anyone who says that everything's OK 'cause it's Teachers and Administrators can get (screwed) AFAIC. This is EXACTLY what I thought would be going on and let me tell you that I think that it's even worse than this...
All of a sudden, the TEACHER wants to turn this on...and she's lecturing people on why they shouldn't...Believe that? I've got a bridge to sell you...
