Hi. My school just started issuing devices last year, and they have this Lightspeed spyware on them. Last year I was able to remove it by booting into Linux from a flash drive and moving the files to a separate drive and then back at the end of the year. This year I have heard from sources that they have ways of detecting...
I work for a school and I provision these types of devices. You do not want to modify or change anything about them, as it probably breaks your acceptable use policy. If they allow you to bring your own device, then do that. But do not change the device they give you in any manner. Just don’t use school property for things you want to be private. It works the exact same way with anything owned by any organization you may work for in the future. They own the device, they set the terms. And your excuse of 'it does not break policy' or 'it is not against the law' is ridiculous, as policy is intentionally broad for this reason, and the law requires you to not interrupt normal classroom activities. If the school lets you, bring your own device. Otherwise, tough luck, seems like you won't be able to play your games.
We are, by law, required to keep this information. However, unlike many other schools, we have a byod policy that allows students to use their own device to essentially bypass this 'surveillance'.
pressing X to doubt that you only help keep information on students that you’re required to by law.
If we were to store private information or data that falls outside the boundaries of the law, we would be subject to arrest for unlawfully retaining children's data. I want to emphasize to both you and OP that schools are legally obligated to store this information, and that I strongly advise against tampering with a device owned by the school.

It's really interesting how some people wrongly claim that trans folks are more likely to commit mass shootings. The thing is, there aren't many trans people out there, so if just one of them is involved in a shooting, it messes up the statistics. Basically, trans people aren't going around shooting up places in any meaningful numbers, and anyone who says otherwise doesn't understand statistical biases like insignificant number bias or sample selection bias work.
edit: Depending on how you count a mass shooting, and if you count the person in denver who (allegedly) changed their identity to avoid hate crime charges.
It's searching for any comment 1-4 karma below a deleted comment. It's a good thing it's "That solved it. Thanks!" instead of "That solved it, Thanks!" (because commas are more common)

Sorry for the dumb question, but, uh, how do you collapse comment threads? I'm a bit new here, and I really like it, but I don't want to have to scroll past a lot of subcomments and side-conversations to see the next top comment. I've tried clicking on the nice colors and stuff, but I can't seem to figure it out. Can someone help me please?
