This is not a false positive, attempts to subvert or sabotage surveillance clearly indicate latent antisocial tendencies and should be punished to the full extent of the law. Please report yourself to the nearest Malcontent Utilization Facility, citizen!

While this might sound like a joke or an exaggeration, this kind of authoritarianism is spreading like wildfire in the US.
i got it. not sure why you're being downvoted.
Hacker News doesn’t like jokes.

Or rather, if you’re going to make a joke, it had better be as part of a substantive comment that exists to do more than just tell a joke.

That wasn't a joke of the, "Why did the chicken cross the road?" sort. Satire can be used to illustrate a point, often more effectively than plain-old words; hence, the comment is no longer grayed out.
Technically only second part was intended as a joke. First part is how I honestly expect the school to take such interference.
