Students Sue Anti-Cheating Service

I was wondering when this was going to happen. You can't constantly tell kids not to make archives of music and movies because they're "intellectual property" and not expect at least some of them to pick up on the fact that they hold the same rights to their term papers as the RIAA does to it's albums.

This suit should be a slam dunk for the plaintiffs.

Two McLean High School students have launched a court challenge against a California company hired by their school to catch cheaters, claiming the anti-plagiarism service violates copyright laws.
