It's only on TCP though, and it doesn't even filter what happens on the whitelisted ports (hint: SSH and various VPN services).
Err, they can see the MAC in the logs anyway (although they can't link it to you unless you have a stupid computer nickname).

My school black listed all the devices that don't belong to them, My iPod is now just a $200 dollar paper weight that plays music

I was joking when I said they 'hax' it. Deeerrrrp.

They can literally access your personal laptop's camera, activate it and look through it. People are getting busted almost everyday for stuff on their computers that are being monitored. Thankfully I decided not to give my address out. Lol.

That's still not how it works, unless they have a backdoor installed on the computer.
Blocki:
We can bring laptops to school and use them if we want, but if we want to use our school networt to surf the internet we must give our mac address so they can whitelist it.
I don't see where a mac address is a security risk?
