Those crazy kids are hiijacking the wireless net at school to surf em up some porn!

Fox News are running a small feature article on a new culture emerging in today's youth, that includes bringing porn to school though devices such as the PSP. One kid even used his PSP to tap into the schools network and freely browse porn on the handheld!

Jeff had used his PSP to tap into the school's wireless internet connection. And once he was on the net it was just a few seconds before he ended up on a pornographic web site. He says he learned how to do it from other kids who use their PSP's do the same thing at school.

There are lots of places besides a school, where a kid can go to get free wireless access to the internet. Jeff showed us, and his mom, how his PSP was able to hook up to a wireless connection outside a public library. once connected he could surf to his hearts content.

Some parents might be clueless, but lots of other adults are finding ways to cash in on the technology. We found numerous web sites that cater specifically to the PSP.

Jana Hennen-Burr/Elk River Schools: "We need to put some structures in place to keep things honest."

For starters, they want to make the school's wireless internet connection a lot more secure.

Sony, the maker of the PSP, told us that parents should be responsible for monitoring the content their children are viewing. But David Walsh of the National Institute on Media and the Family, says game makers have a responsibility too. They should let parents know that their product could give a kid easy access to pornography.
