Hacking Around.
Zirkel, Perry A.
Phi Delta Kappan, v80 n7 p550-51 Mar 1999
Discusses a complicated appellate-court case upholding a Milwaukee high-school junior's expulsion for advocating computer hacking in a student newspaper. The decision is noteworthy for signaling a growing technology-related litigation trend, conflating the advocacy/incitement issue, and showing courts' decreasing tolerance for perceived threats to school safety.
