They would rather sweep the problem under the rug rather than teaching kids about responsible and safe use of technology etc… it’s far easier and less costly.

But what about those damn phones? Kids surely aren't using their phones cuz the classes r boring as shit due to a boring and underfunded education system. Now that we have taken their phones away, they surely won't find some other distraction like bullying the teacher, fooling around with their peers and so on... They surely are going to be model students who always pay attention to the teacher and everything that is taught. /s
