It's a setting on a computer. Get a grip. This is pure insanity.

Erm... the kid was looking for cameras so that he'd spy on his classmates using administrative privileges.

BTW: The real problem here... is that the press is extremely dumb how they're handling this. I shouldn't be able to find this information... the press should have editorial discretion to protect this kid from this sort of analysis I'm doing. It's not right to take apart an 8th-grader's argument like this... but I think I have to to prove a point to yall.

I'm gonna redact his name at least, unlike the press.


It reads like he put a picturr of his own butt on the computer, not spy on anyone
