Fifty to 60 high school students in Henrico County, VA have been caught with hardcore pornography on their Apple iBooks, according to the Associated Press. In an announced deal that brought pride to both Superintendent Mark A. Edwards and Apple CEO Steve Jobs, the revelation that some students are using the computers as a sexual distraction comes as a shock to some parents within the school district. The school district currently employs an Internet filtering system, but it does not block access to Web sites unless there is a reference to sex in the address or the site’s text. School officials had already planned to collect the iBooks during holiday break for a memory upgrade. Now, additional security features will be put in place to deter students from accessing the graphic sexual images.
