Re: Defend Digital Me, a children's privacy campaign group

You make good points, you can't monitor her internet in school so it is the schools responsibility. Personally I believe this should be done by white list and not tracking, kids are there to learn, not go on social media and the like. The problem I have with the current set up is that it's not transparent, you are not informed exactly who has the data, who can access the data and whether that data will be sold. Schools budgets are currently stretched so it doesn't take much to consider them selling data or pushing a platform for money. That's the problem, I also have issue with bio-metrics because who is going to get that data?
