Students In UK Tracked With RFID Chips
An anonymous reader writes "Ten kids in a pilot program in the Hungerhill School in Edenthorpe, England will participate in a program that puts RFID chips in students' uniforms to keep track of their whereabouts. A group called 'Leave Them Kids Alone' is opposing the program. Bruce Schneier blogs: '...Now it's easy to cut class; just ask someone to carry your shirt around the building while you're elsewhere.'"
*You, Yes You, Stand Still Laddie!*
When we grew up and went to school, there were certain teachers who would hurt the children anyway they could
by pouring their derision upon anything we did
exposing any weakness however carefully hidden by the kids.
But in the town it was well known
When they got home at night their fat and psychopathic wives
Would thrash them within inches of their lives!
We don't need no education
We don't need no thought control
No dark sarcasm in the classroom
Teachers leave them kids alone
Hey! Teacher! Leave them kids alone!
All in all it's just another brick in the wall.
All in all you're just another brick in the wall.
(A bunch of kids singing) We don't need no education
We don't need no thought control
No dark sarcasm in the classroom
Teachers leave them kids alone
Hey! Teacher! Leave us kids alone!
All in all it's just another brick in the wall.
All in all you're just another brick in the wall.
"Wrong, Guess again!
Wrong, Guess again!
If you don't eat your meat, you can't have any pudding.
How can you have any pudding if you don't eat your meat?
You! Yes, you behind the bike sheds, stand still laddie!"
I can't believe I get modded down at all for any post when there are people like the poster above who fights the windmills of Big Brother with half-baked pseudoscience.
