Well, this was just a matter of time. The ACLU is suing the state of Missouri against their Facebook law. 

Actually, you have to give the ACLU some credit lately. They are also watching schools for limiting some speech by blocking certain websites in a discriminatory fashion. Just in Missouri this last week the ACLU got a consortium of districts to unblock some pro-LGBT sites that they had been blocking. 

You can think what you want of the ACLU and there has been occassions where I have disagreed with their positions, but for now the ACLU seems to be on the side of proper and healthy technology integration in schools.
