11th Grade Student Gets Detention For Using Firefox

This is probably one of the most ludicrous things I’ve ever come across in my 25 years on this planet. An 11th grader at Big Spring High School in Newville, PA was given detention for using the Firefox Web browser instead of Internet Explorer.

Here is a copy of the letter, note the red-boxed area:

Firefox brings detention

Update: 12/18/2007 - Turns out it this was all a hoax. Oh well, it was fun to gather the troops in support of Firefox.
