On college campus networks yes. How would you have a Java class without allowing unverified software to run on the schools network?

And just because it's state schools now we should be extra worried, the Texas gop has been working to systematically disassemble all avenues of public education, the ability of colleges to college needs to be protected

I said unsafe software. I specifically said spyware. If you're caught running malicious Java code on the network, you'll be reprimanded. If you're running known malicious apps by Big (Ad)Tech, you should also be reprimanded.

If they were to completely cut all funding to public education, it's the state schools that would disappear. Private schools, who already are not affected by this ban, would be fine.

Only having private schools is a bad thing.

the limitation of public schools to perform studies on par with private institutes is bad. It should be prevented to preserve avenues to higher education.
