Hello!!! I’m a very involved student in this district, participating in a lot of events and extracurriculars, and I genuinely care about what happens here. But honestly, this new policy feels like a straight-up invasion of privacy. Why do you need to see my location 24/7, even when I’m not at school? My parents do that, and it makes sense because they are my parents. Teachers are not my family and thus do not need to know about my whereabouts. There have already been multiple cases in our own district where teachers have turned out to be criminals, including my teacher from middle school who was later arrested for being a child predator. That’s just one example among many, many others in FBISD, and it makes me really uncomfortable knowing people like that could have access to my location. Also, I just want to be able to listen to Spotify and do my work in peace without having to worry about some teacher checking what songs I’m listening to or where I’m at all the time. The phone ban is already extreme; now, students are getting referrals in Skyward just because their phones rang inside their backpacks (It’s not even my fault the insurance guy called me at 10:01 AM). I’m not trying to be disrespectful, but this all feels over the top. Students like me work hard, represent the district in so many ways, and deserve some level of trust. Please take into consideration how these policies make us feel. We just want to learn, do our best, and have our privacy respected.
Dhruva supported: TSU: Ban GoGuardian Surveillance Software on FBISD Student LaptopsHonestly if our privacy isn’t already taken away enough, along with the phone ban, teachers being able to see every time I move a mouse on my computer is such a violation of privacy. Fbisd aswell as schools needs to stop treated their students like jailmates with no privacy. Every day just to enter there’s 3 teachers acting like prison wardens asking for our id card one by one, phones are banned, we have no freedom to even get up, a lot of teachers don’t even allow restrooms, food is WORSE than prison food, if this isn’t bad enough, we are getting more to top it off. School shouldn’t feel like such a prison. Not one person will like the fact that every time we open our computers, you can see it. What if there’s something serious? Someone has to look up a serious question on their computer, but the teacher can see it. What if it’s about their health? What if it’s a private question? Can they see our search history too? It’s a fricked up thing. At this point change the name “school” to “county prison”. We are students who deserve privacy, not inmates who are being literally spied on my our teachers. I’m a high schooler who deserves my privacy. But I’m being treated like a 2nd grader with this.
Eros supported: TSU: Ban GoGuardian Surveillance Software on FBISD Student LaptopsNew World has always been the one game that ticked every box in a game for me. The environment, the gameplay, the movement, the esthetics, the music, everything is so damn wonderful.
New world launched when I was going through a deep and intense personal period of loss and both the game and the friends I made throughout the New World community helped distract and eventually pick myself back up through the relationships this game fostered.
Please save New World 💗
Carrie supported: Reinstate AGS' New World: Aeternum team“New World isn’t just a game—it’s a world that’s brought people together. I’ve spent over 4,000 hours exploring Aeternum, making friends who’ve become like family. This game has built communities that thrive on teamwork, creativity, and shared experiences. There’s truly nothing else like it—the combat system is unmatched, the visuals are stunning, and there’s something for everyone, whether it’s PvP battles, boss fights, crafting, or gathering.
Right now, players’ hearts are broken. We’re not just losing a game; we’re losing the world where our friendships were built and memories were made. Please reconsider sunsetting New World—this community and everything it stands for deserves to live on.”
Stephanie supported: Reinstate AGS' New World: Aeternum teamBeing a console player, we don't have much variety when it comes to the MMO genre. When New World was announced for console, I couldn't explain my excitement to finally play the game with my friends that have played on PC since day one. New World has brought so much joy, companionship, and connected the world of people of different backgrounds together. This game has always been my game to grind over everything else, what I and others look forward to when we come home and just want to kick back, and play with our friends. I'd hate to see this game go away, because of AI taking jobs. I hope Amazon changes their mind as a whole, to keep AGS going for years and years to come.
