The point is they have no choice. There is no 'I don't want to be monitored' button. Just a message that says 'you are our bitch and there is nothing you can do about it'. The same as every other TOS for services that have become essential in our society and economy.

Don't they have the choice of communicating some other device or method? They are not forced to use the school computer. Many of them have phones, or a family computer.

  Wouldn't be surprised if in a few decades we have AI monitoring your communication ready to flag you for psychiatric evaluation.

    You may be interested in an anime called Psycho Pass that kinda has that as a plot point. Law enforcement can point a gun at you to evaluate your psychiatric level and kill you if deemed to high

  It's not just the computer. They tend to be forced to use Drive, email, chat, etc provided by the school to meet their collaboration/participation part of the rubric.

  How many parents are going to buy their kids extra devices just to help them bypass rules and supervision?
