Scary Campfire Story about Privacy #005

In this fictional campfire story, we take a look at a community college English teacher and their students and how they get caught up in events happening in society. They end up being investigated by law enforcement out of an abundance of caution because their cell phone serial numbers were recorded by a Stingray device in a van parked near a protest march. The Law enforcement gets a subpoena to look at some of the students learning activity data out of an abundance of caution. Spoiler alert: nothing really bad happens to anyone in the story unless you have a principled concern regarding the loss of control / ownership of private student activity to third parties.
