If your philosophy on how to best protect the children under your care is to install monitoring and filtering software on devices you own and require id verification to bypass (such as teacher's overrides) then that is your right.
That being said if I a parent at such a school I would assist my child in every way possible to make sure that their own browsing is exempted or shielded from such systems because I do think it's a violation of their privacy and that's my right as a parent but I digress.
If that same philosophy requires everyone to be subject to such a monitoring and filtering system by law then that's where I take issue. Because having teacher's credentials by virtue of being an adult isn't enough. I'm still being monitored and identified.
Do you really not see the difference between an opt-in filtering system controlled by the responsible party for specific children and a global mandatory filtering system controlled by literally the worst human beings alive? That have an explicitly adversarial relationship to you and control the global definition of child appropriate to suit their agenda?
