I can't say for certain because I wasn't given one but I can't imagine me and my friends would have been willing to communicate with each other on devices provided by our school. Even in the early 00s it would have been filled with spyware.

Yeah for sure. My friends and I were completely paranoid about stuff like that.

I cannot possibly imagine trusting a school issued device.
