I wish that I'd saved the RSS feed description on
BBC NEWS | UK | Education | Net abuse 'starts in primaries'. The article is about kids plagiarizing and what not. Misusing online resources. Bullying. Problems with "e-safety" (please. e-safety?)
The feed description on Bloglines suggested that the Net was the actor and the students were the object of the sentence. Something like "Net abuses elementary and secondary students." Probably someone's error that has been corrected, but I found it interesting to blame the Internet as if it were a responsible participant.
