ACLU's damning report on the dystopian "edtech" surveillance industry.

ACLU Supporter –

It's Banned Books Week and the ACLU has been sounding the alarm bells about the escalating attacks on students' right to learn in classrooms.

But we want to make sure you're aware of another incredibly disturbing reality unfolding in schools – one George Orwell could write a book about (likely also to be banned).

And that is the shadowy world of digital surveillance in schools.

Our experts have been investigating the dangerous consequences of surveillance in schools for years and we've just released a damning report that we think everyone should have the facts on: Dive into our findings now. <[link removed]>

ACLU Supporter, shady technology companies are preying on educators' fears to convince them their invasive surveillance products are capable of keeping our students safe. But that is simply untrue. Not only is there no proof their products work, but they actually increase discrimination, chill free speech, and erode trust between students and educators.

And that goes for other freedoms, too: Our polling found approximately 1 in 5 students are concerned that surveillance technology could be used to identify students seeking reproductive health care and gender-affirming care.

We are not powerless against those seeking to make their fortunes by selling abusive, ineffective surveillance technologies to our schools. Equip yourself with the tools to fight back today. <[link removed]>
