Yeah, and I'm saying that if you can do this, you should, to help the many people who can't. I'd get more lulz value out of a $250 chromebook being taken for 6

Yeah, and I'm saying that if you can do this, you should, to help the many people who can't. I'd get more lulz value out of a $250 chromebook being taken for 6mo on bogus grounds than the cost of the chromebook. It's not a solution (since they can easily pre-sort citizen vs. non-citizen, and treat one group dramatically worse, even beyond the legal or threat-model requirements), but it's a start.
