Tldr surveillance software on loaned school computers can be used by schools to find when students are using lgbtq keywords and potentially out them

That's why you never use a school or work computer for personal use.

If it's your only computer, you may not have a choice, and we're talking about kids here, who are stuck with what their parents do or don't buy them. I can easily see a teen in a lower-income household being stuck between a rock and a hard place here.

at a recent job i handled backups and restores for the company and in the process of restoring requested files from laptops you see everything else they have saved too. seemed like pretty much everyone was using their work laptop as their one and only computer.

Porn. So much porn.

And, unfortunately, illegal stuff. Which we had to report.

Joke's on them... I put normal porn on my work laptop so they think I'm into normal shit, then I watch the REA, fucked up porn on my personal PC.

Having a camera in their bedroom wasn't enough, gotta go full on thought police.
