Some free speech!
This has happened before. It is similar to the IIPM thing. What I don't understand is, why don't these schools don't take it up as a sort of challenge and use the stuff they see on the blogs to improve themselves instead of snubbing and threatening them? Not only is it a violation of free speech, they're creating a bad name for themselves.
The justifications they give is silly too. Does this-"Rev. Kieran McHugh, the school's principal, said that he was trying to protect students from online predators.", make any sense? Ofcourse! I can swear there have been atleast 3 sexual predators on my blog over the last hour. Yeah, right.
Kids are the parent's responsibility. The school can warn in a affable manner but they can't threaten them with expulsion. The school can in no way ban blogs on the basis of something that they actually have no right over. What the children do at home is none of their concern. As long as the parent is okay with blogging, it's okay.
Hiding Secrets? Maybe it's that these kids are letting others know that the school is really horrible and that they shouldn't join them. Something similar happened in the IIPM case. f there's nothing wrong with them, they should allow bloggers and maybe even encourage them to talk about them.
Good Intentions,maybe...Okay. Maybe they really have a good intention. They should just tell them to remove their real names and photos. THey don't have to expel them. That's crazy and it doesn't fit in.
Just mind your own business, bastards! Anyone can say anything they want about you. If you can't deal with it, and you cry like a little baby, you'll have a lot of crying to do.
If this is continued, more and more bloggers will go anonymous and faceless people can be dangerous...
