14. That article really only mentions one other school,

and it doesn't even try to answer any questions about the real scope of the problem.

I spent some time looking, too, and you're right...It is hard to find even a mention of a wider problem. Every once in awhile a reporter will include a passing comment about other districts' doing this, but none of them seem to realize that THEY are the ones who should be asking these questions:

How many and which school districts are using the cameras?
How are they being used?
How many students are affected?
What notifications are being used?
What privacy policies are in place?
Do the notification rules and privacy policies differ across schools? How?
How are notification rules and privacy policies developed?
How are they enforced?
What other complaints have been made at other schools?
etc...

Who, What, When, Where, Why, for pete's sake.

These are all important questions that have factual answers and that good reporters should be asking.

They are acting as though Lower Merion is an isolated incident, and this could not be happening anywhere else.
