Sacrificing privacy for security. The Sandyhook conspiracy thing seems a bit flimsy, until you hear about things like this. Kids voting to sacrifice their own privacy. Seems insane, but if they can turn immortally fearless teenagers into cowards then they can easily control their minds. We're in trouble.

Well the kids didn't vote for it, the school district's board of directors did. But there are many kids who are being told this is a good idea, some of the buy it, some don't. The kid I talked to seemed on the fence about it. It just started this year, and school just started recently.
