American here. In high school, a (male) student opened up a (female) teacher’s personal laptop while she was out of the class and found nudes from her early modeling career. The teacher was fired for it.

I still think about how unjust that was.



I generally agree with the sentiment, especially if the student were ro find them on their own.

It's possible she was fired because she had unsecured pictures that were inappropriate for students at school and the students gained access to them. For example, teachers generally aren't fired for cursing/insulting outside of the classroom at non-students, but they certainly could be if it were in the classroom at a student.


During the teacher for not securing her laptop seems reasonable


It seems like puritanical idiocy to me, but hey, what do I know.


She claerly has some personal information on there, it’s allow certain she has student information on there. Grievous data protection failure worthy of strong disciplinary action.
