It could be recording to a hidden partition and sending that at the next connection opportunity...

Or they could be wirelessly transmitting electricity to your computer to turn it on when you're not looking.

I don't know what the big deal is. I think this coming of Big Brother is pretty cool. I can't wait until the whole world is monitored.

No, no, you've got it wrong.  It's "down with Big Brother!", not "Up w/ B-B!".

Are you also sure there's nothing others could mistake for worth hiding? Like, for example, did you ever meet or chat online with someone from the midle east? Did you ever talk to someone who's car got stolen a litlle later? Have you ever been cross at a teacher that got into trouble for something?

Last week a bunch of kids got 5 day suspension for starting a Facebook group that involved something along the lines of "this teacher sucks".

Make of it what you will.

The worst part is the kid that founded the group never does ANYTHING wrong during school.

*Adjusts monocle* Oh really?  Just what do you call this then-

starting a Facebook group that involved something along the lines of "this teacher sucks".

There's a fanclub dedicated to one of our teachers on facebook.  He really doesn't like it, but the admin of that group quit, so now it can't be taken down...

Actually, the worst part is that it's a violation of our freedom of speech.  We have to respect teachers when talking to them at school.  Doesn't mean we can't say what we will of them outside of it.
