In the not-too-distant future --
Next Sunday, A.D. --

Just polishing switches to pay his way;
He did his job well with a cheerful face,
But his bosses didn't like him
So they shot him into spaaaaaaaaace......

Lower Merion School's Report Says IT Dept. Did It, But Didn't Inhale 232

In particular, the report mentions lax IT policies and record-keeping as major problems that enabled the spying. Despite thousands of e-mails and images to the contrary, the report also maintains that no proof exists that anyone in IT viewed images captured by the webcams."
