I am a person who treasures privacy more than anything else. My life is so low-key that I don't mind if no one knows anything about me at all.
There are so many people like me out there, and it's not our fault; that is just who we are. And this doesn't mean that those who want a loud lifestyle are foolish; it's also who they are.
Privacy is one of the things everyone loves; in fact, even celebrities whose almost every move is made public have a limit to what they desire for people to know about them.
If everything about us is known, what then makes us special? Won't it make us vulnerable and common?
The government is well aware of this, which is why they made a provision to protect people's privacy even in the Constitution.
And to prove how critical it is, punishment is assigned to those who tamper with these rights.
Privacy is something that applies in every area of life, including social media. People have the right to keep their activities on the platforms to themselves without any external supervision.
Any page registered in their names is supposed to be their property with no external monitoring. They are to do as they please with it as long as it does not go against the platform’s policy.
With this, no school or organization is supposed to have rights over any of its staff’s or students' private lives.
The question is, what are they even looking for? They have the school environment to monitor their staff and students; anything outside that is not their jurisdiction.
I consider it a serious trespass. Whatever may be the reason for that, I don't think it is logical. People should have some breathing space. If one is monitored back and forth, what makes them different from a prisoner?
No school or organization should monitor anyone's social media activity; it's their life, let them live it the way they want.
Monitoring might look like a way to ensure people behave properly, but trust me, it is what people have that they will give. Such an act can only make them hypocrites, and I am certain they would have other accounts that they can use secretly to do whatever they desire.
Instead of ensuring discipline, such a policy might end up making things even worse. For me, let people be themselves when they are within your jurisdiction; you can correct them, but going further to spy on people's social media activity is a crime.
It doesn't matter whether the person is under your authority or not; if anyone does such, it's a breach of privacy, and the truth is that the information you are looking for, you will definitely get it. You will see those faults you are looking for, and then what?
Will it change anything at all? Will it transform the person's character automatically? So, what's the use in the end?
