Password Protected?


What are your thoughts on this?
From what I can see, I feel that the girl shouldn't have given the information. Also, I feel that this is illegal for the school to do this.
Should the school administration be able to make you give up your password to any account?
No. Only if there is a physical threat to someone specifically. For example, "I will stab Mr. *NAME HERE* because of a bad grade" is something serious enough to get the passwords of where it was posted.
What about e-mail, tweets, and Facebook postings?
Again, only if it is a threat. Because of the Tinker case, students actually have rights.
Should a school punish you for "inappropriate" postings?
Inappropriate, no. Possibly causing physical harm, yes.
