Los Angeles schools halt home use of district-issued iPads after students hack security restrictions - The Los Angeles Unified School District has suspended home use of Apple's iPad by students until further notice following the revelation that a number of students had bypassed the school-installed security features on the device.

Hard to believe people are shocked by this. High school was maybe the only time I had to muddle around with the 6502 assembly innards of the Apple ][ and C64. After that, C was preferred because it simply did everything I needed without the inconvenience of opcodes.
