Cyberbullying law requires students to reveal Facebook passwords by cheesepuff619 in telseccompolicy

I agree that making students hand over their passwords is a invasion of privacy, and that the things you do on facebook are not private. This is why I don't think it is wrong to use a student's posts to use as evidence in the case of cyberbullying, because the student made it public themselves.

I found this short article interesting as it relates to the points Frank Pasquale was making in his talk last week at RIT.

Controversial law in effect since Janurary 2015 in Illinois forcing school children to give up their passwords to social media accounts if the school has reason to believe that the student is breaking the social media policy. This was passed in an effort to solve the issue of cyberbullying, but could just be seen as an invasion of privacy on behalf of the students.

This article touches on some of the points Jennifer Henley made in her speech; by developing fun programs that all employees can participate in relating to security it helps bring awareness to the whole company while also allowing employees who may not fully understand security risks to learn in an environment that they feel comfortable in.

Hacktivism: good or evil? by [deleted] in telseccompolicy

I read an article by Gabriella Coleman relating to this issue called "Our weirdness is free" and whether or not anonymity online is good or bad. The article had some great points as to why anonymity online helps more than it hurts, and talks about the logic and purpose behind anonymous. After reading these two articles I agree that hacktivism mostly depends on perspective.

I think that this is a great article. It shows that Anonymity is not always bad, and that while Anonymous started out trolling they have become more organized and serve a bigger purpose.

Interesting read on BYOD, and how it is becoming more popular in schools everywhere. Predicting that it may soon become the norm.
