Good overview full of links to primary sources (the way online news coverage should be, unlike the link deserts found on most news web sites) describing the trend of using P2P network blockers in high schools. Well, the micro-trend, anyways, since only a few schools are named. The problem with these systems - and this comes out in the article - is that they either scan every bit of traffic, which is a gross invasion of privacy, or they stop all peer-to-peer (P2P) services completely, which is overkill.
