The moment you transfer your work to a teacher it stops being private. He/She may upload in to could or use any sort of software to grade it/organize it/check for cheating. There are privacy issues worth worrying and there are issues that are not. This is the second one.
That is a good point, but privacy was half my reason for doing this. The other is that the performance impact of all the stuff they have on there is terrible. In another comment I went into more detail about the performance implications of the software they have added / make us use. I believe they also have windows defender live scanning or whatever its called enabled which slows even the lightest apps down quite a bit.
