Should probably get rid of hall monitors and taking attendance too.
1. Hall monitors actually exist?
2. Taking attendance doesn't track you. I can't stop you from looking to see if I'm in the same room but I can surely stop you from scanning for my radio ID. There should be no lawful punishment for this.
It isn't like the government can't trace you with your cellphone or anything already. Now they just want to condition the new generation that it is perfectly acceptable... unless you have something to hide, of course. Who knows, in 30 years maybe they won't even need a warrant!
Many hospitals are now retrofitting leaky coax with RF repeaters to provide localized cell service.Quote:

Why? What possible difference would it make to you if an administrator has the ability locate you on school grounds?Quote:

Except you, the student, are never liable for the safety of the administrator are you? If I'm supposed to make sure you're getting to class, being safe, etc. then having a tool that lets me do that ONLY AT SCHOOL is bad how?
They're responsible for access to the property and liable for injuries. So yes. They could benefit from being able to locate students. On the other hand you have no authority or responsibility so you don't need to locate staff.Quote:

You can have as many tools as you want, as long as they can track me without forcing me to possess that tracking device. It doesn't make me any safer and it arguably violates the Fifth Amendment.
Why. What difference does it make if you're required to carry an ID without an RF tracker as opposed to one that is? How does being required to carry a badge for access to a facility a violation of your Fifth Amendment rights?Quote:
