Invasion of privacy there if nothing was signed or given permission. They will have legal issues VERY soon. Any computer i work on daily i always cover the webcams the customers have encase they are weird like that.

Well just an example of how stupid schools are, at my high school if you get into a fight with anyone, even off school grounds you are suspended for up to a week..... bs, its none of their business....

Yeah, or if you get in a fight, or -attacked- you get suspended even if you dont defend yourself. But really wtf is wrong with self defense.
I dont know about off of school grounds but im sure my school would try to do the same.

If this had happened in MY school, at the first hint of a rumor my friends and I would have put on a REAL show for them, on their webcam... the scenarios are endless.
Times have changed now, alas. ^_^

LOL. yeah. i would too hahaha. just to make em freak out. Hold some mock satanic ritual/ or in the case of THIS story, act like your doing drugs. Since he assumed the kid was doing them any way lol.
I dont think I would do anything to personal. Maybe write some obscene things on paper and post it infront of the webcam.

or do this :banana: :banana: :banana:

A few years ago I heard a story on the news about a guy who was arrested for something like this. Apparently, he had hacked into a girls computer and was using her webcam to get illicit photos of her without her knowing. The way he got caught was when he e-mailed the photos to his friends, he accidentally included her in the address list and she got a copy of the e-mail with her photos in it.

About a year later, after purchasing an unspecified number of weapons in a relatively short amount of time, I noticed that whenever I would walk into my computer room that my computer, normally asleep when not in use, would automatically power up and come on. At first I thought maybe the floor was shaking and vibrating the mouse or something, but the webcam kept bugging me because I remembered the above story. I even tried walking into the room softly but the same thing would happen. Finally I just un-plugged the webcam and it stopped. Interestingly enough, about 3 weeks later, 2 agents showed up at my house to verify that I was still in possession of said weapons. Conspiracy or coincidence, who knows? I just found the whole thing a bit creepy and now I keep the cams unplugged...

Over paranoid is the answer. I have 5 computers ALL built by me 3 of which have no internet access and when i put them in sleep they will out of the blue awake them selves. This is partially hardware and software working with the operating system. Vista and windows 7 is prone for this. Nothing you can do at all.

And its not a government looking into your computer to watch you as like states hardware like wifi or mouse can awake a computer up at ANY GIVEN TIME.

I work for the Federal government in IT, I have an active TS clearance, and honestly... after some of the things I have been privileged to, I don't believe in being over paranoid. There is quite a bit of scary technology out there, that you wouldn't even believe exists or is possible.

Just saying.

Doing drugs? No, we would have staged several 'murders', complete with fake blood and body parts, lol.
