I knew my story about the Lower Merion School District spying on its students via their webcams would get a rise out of the Cringeville population, and I wasn't disappointed. Since I posted the piece, however, there have been a few new developments. For one, Harriton High assistant principal Lindy Matsko has issued an emphatic and emotional denial, declaring media reports that she spied on students ""unjust and inaccurate": At no point in time did I have the ability to access any Web cam through security tracking software. At no time have I ever monitored a student via a laptop web cam, nor have I ever authorized the monitoring of a student via security tracking web cam, either at school or within the home. And I never would.
