MIT professor Nicholas Negroponte’s lofty One Laptop Per Child program is showing that children will be children - and naughty ones at that.
Nigerian kids testing what are being designed as $100 laptop computers were caught surfing pornography on the Internet, according to a News Agency of Nigeria report this week. The agency said one of its reporters saw pornographic images stored on several of the children’s computers in the capital city of Abuja.
“Efforts to promote learning with laptops in a primary school in Abuja have gone awry, as the pupils freely browse adult sites with explicit sexual materials,” the agency said.
There must be supervision and accountability, otherwise it is foolish to expect things to go any differently.
