It seems that people, especially school-aged children, are learning the hard way that nothing in the digital age is private.

100 EPHS students were reprimanded [1] in one way or another after school officials obtained the photos from various Facebook pages.

With one student stating that he felt obtaining the photos from Facebook pages seemed to be an invasion of privacy, I feel that this was publicly viewable information and these students clearly weren't thinking that anyone with internet access, including school and law enforcement officials, could easily find these photos.

It's common sense that if you don't want something to be seen, don't make it available. Apparently these students are learning that lesson the hard way. Are the punishments being handed out too harsh or not harsh enough?
