Remote Learning Accidentally Introduced a New Danger for LGBTQ Students

Their laptop was given to them by their school, and it contains software that flags any student writing that uses, among other terms, “queer” or “transgender.”

The software must have slipped and fell into the laptop.

In 70 years on this planet, I would have thought we’d put LGBTQ+ and racism to rest. I look forward to a day when being LGBTQ+ is as boring as being heterosexual. America could solve about 50% of it’s problems by using this one simple trick: Mind your own fuckin’ business. My sexual proclivities should only come into discussion if you’re sitting on my lap. Otherwise, piss off.

They need to be taught that anything they use their school email address to log in to or anything on their school laptop can be seen by others. That’s the important lesson missing here.

They also need to be taught how to log out of their school accounts and use a personal account while on a personal device and not doing homework.

This can really hurt students who consider or are unaware of privacy risks while on the internet or on a school device.

it is the schools device and there free to do anything with it. sad to see schools are not a safe place for students but its just how it is now. and the parts about student personal devices should be against the law.
