My College[1] recently asked me to sign their Student Acceptable Use
Policy (AUP).
We have been logging on whilst seeing a few obvious things that we agree
not to do if we click 'yes' for ages, but this year they have realised
that you can't prove someone accepts an agreement by clicking a button
so they have produced paper copies for us to sign.
In line with what I said in 'Why DFEY[2]' I find some of the things in
the AUP quite far reaching, unnecessary, and ultimately unexplainable.
I wonder if we could take a look at what I've been asked to sign, work
out where the cracks are and then send my principal a pretty email.
