  • Student Teacher Sent a Private Snapchat Complaining About Her Workday. An Hour Later, Police Pulled Up to Her School.

  • This person was subject to a whole FBI/local law enforcement team showing up to their place of work, questioning, arresting, and holding them overnight. They not only no longer have a job (you clearly didn't read the article), but they also will likely not be able to enter the profession they spent 4 years in college to get into.

    The closed laptop erased her lesson plan. I don't know if you know this but teachers don't get paid for overtime. They do a lot of overtime including writing lesson plans. There's a lot of unpaid labor that goes into being a teacher and she wasn't even a full fledged teacher (she's basically an intern).

    She has a bad day and it ended her career before it even started. Because a company that propagates it's brand by marketing it's private messages as private decided to surveil it's users.

  • Most people? I think you should reconsidering your definition of "most people".

  • Here's the thing. It's an off color joke. Snapchat didn't report her "master plan" to smuggle weapons into the school.

    It reported what was essentially a private vent session from a woman who is young enough to have lived through a lot of the security theater of the active shooter drills happening in schools across the US to this day.

    It would be like a boomer or perhaps Gen X'r making a joke about bomb shelters.

    Or a millennial making jokes about suicide or bomb threats (both of which are things a lot of millennials actually have made jokes about).

    Is it a cool thing to say in mixed company? No. But she wasn't saying it in mixed company. She was talking to her boyfriend. She had the expectation that it was a private conversation.

    It's extremely likely that she wouldn't have made the same joke if she had known it wasn't private.

    In any case though, you don't have to be okay with the joke to see that this is basically an algorithmic invasion of someone's expected privacy and that is an overstep in the name of security that actually violates privacy for security theatre.

    You mean to tell me they can scramble a whole FBI team in less than an hour for a "terroristic threat" that isn't even viable, but they let all those kids get shot in Uvalde?

    There have been multiple active shooters who actually posted manifestos online before they committed the acts and those guys didn't get a visit from the FBI in full riot gear.

    How many people do you know who have made a joke about killing their boss? When I was in the Navy, Marines used to deliberately make dead baby jokes for the shock value. It's not okay, but it is a fact that it happens and that's unlikely to change.

  • "Deprive them skeletons" is an awkward slogan, but it's one I can get behind.

  • Rescue kittens: how it started, how it's going.

    Jump

  • Does your area have catch, spay/neuter, and release programs for strays?

    Usually you get surprise kittens when either someone's unfixed animal gets out and gets pregnant/gets another cat pregnant, or when kittens are dumped because some people aren't good, or unfixed strays get pregnant and have babies.

    Some areas may have predators that would deter cats (humans, coyotes, large snakes, alligators, crocodiles, puma/mountain lions etc). Some areas aren't hospitable (weather wise) to strays.

  • GPS, telematics(the driving data your car collects and sends back to the automotive company who built it), over the air updates, some SOS style features like OnStar, maybe satellite radio.

    Edit: Maybe apps, and stuff like updates to the onboard owners manual (because some cars don't come with a paper one anymore). Oh. And using your phone as a key.

  • I wasn't going to buy PS4 but I got it as a Christmas gift from family. Same with my Switch. I don't use either one. Haven't used the PS4 in at least 2 years.

    I never had Xbox but I do use Steam. At this point I'm not even buying AAA games because of so many studios and platforms being terrible to consumers.

  • Schools across America are quietly admitting that screens in classrooms made students worse off and are reversing years of tech-first policies

    Jump

  • Yeah. My kid doesn't go to a school where they use computers or iPads this way, but I have to assume that lessons are done on device and therein lies the problem. Can't confiscate the device because then the kid can't do the lessons. So now teachers have to fund classrooms partially out of their own pocket, spend unpaid time outside school hours to do marking and lesson planning, and play IT. Teachers already have a lot on their plates without adding an extra burden that the administration should be addressing properly.

    Jump

  • Probably not down to the teachers but to administration. When I was a kid we had computers (PC's or Macs) in some classrooms, but the caveat is that they specifically blocked most websites so if it wasn't on an approved list you couldn't use it. At some point it seems like they gave up trying to stay ahead of kids circumventing the blocks and teachers aren't spending time outside of class playing IT. They already dedicate a lot of unpaid time to grading papers and other extracurricular activities.

    I can at least agree that teachers should confiscate or prevent students from using them if they provide more of a distraction than a help.

  • The 4th Circuit Says Border Agents Can Search Your Phone By Hand, No Suspicion Required

    Jump

  • I have a question about the whole port thing. Apparently (according to another case where a guy wiped his phone), international airports count as a port of entry where the authorities can search your phone without a warrant. But at the same time, shouldn't that only count in the event that you're using it as a port of exit or entry into the country? You mean to tell me I can take a flight to NY from Missouri and have my phone subjected to a search just because JFK is an international airport?

    Can I drive by a border crossing and be subject to search?

    According to the information found at this link the answer is yes.

    https://www.nolo.com/legal-encyclopedia/rules-car-searches-different-search-near-us-border.html

    So if I happen to live without a 100 mile radius of a border crossing I'm screwed? It seems like this decision further exacerbates an injustice inherent in the how much power ICE has, and it's bullshit. You should need probable cause to search someone.

  • Author Invited to Give Speech at OpenAI Headquarters, Uses Opportunity to Trash AI to Their Faces

    Jump

  • It's not about the AI. It's about the idea that this author might have been hired with the intention that he do exactly what he did as a way for the people in charge to vet the true feelings/misgivings that the people in the room might have about their brand and their use of AI.

    I don't think the OC meant to defend or even insult AI.

  • Elon Musk's xAI sues Grok user for using Grok to generate child sexual abuse deepfakes(CSAM)

  • So. The company could have just turned over the proof to the police and let them prosecute him for CP/CSAM. Instead they decided to do this? Why? I doubt he's got money they can take. It's certainly not to protect the "good name". This seems like they just want to be seen doing something and they picked the worst thing to be seen doing.

    "He used our LLM for CSAM!"

    "Why does your LLM generate CSAM?"
