Modern technologies, such as social media, cell phones and online banking, have enabled centralized corporations and authorities to continuously surveil our conversations, activities, purchases, and relationships. People around the world have become accustomed to relinquishing privacy in exchange for digital conveniences. Indeed, we are often subtly, and not so subtly, coerced into foregoing our privacy.

Monitoring is used for discipline more often than for student safety: Teachers bear considerable responsibility but lack training for student activity monitoring: Teachers are generally tasked with responding to alerts generated by student activity monitoring, despite only a small percentage having received training on how to do so privately and securely. Monitoring is often not limited to school hours despite parent and student concerns: Students and parents are the most comfortable with monitoring being limited to when school is in session, but monitoring frequently occurs outside of that time frame. Stakeholders demonstrate large knowledge gaps in how monitoring software functions: There are significant gaps between what teachers report is communicated about student activity monitoring, often via a form provided along with a school-issued device, and what parents and students retain and report about it.

In the first move by state legislatures to regulate the family vlogging industry, Washington state has introduced new child rights legislation(Opens in a new tab) affording legal protections for children starring in online content. Should it pass, the law — proposed through House Bill 1627(Opens in a new tab), titled "Protecting the interests of minor children featured on for-profit family vlogs" — would ensure that children featured in online content, such as family vlogs, would receive appropriate compensation for any profit-generating media. It requires parents to funnel a portion of content revenue into a separate fund for children to access when they are adults. The law also would enshrine a right to privacy for these children once they've reached legal adult status, allowing them to petition to have videos and other content deleted.

Very interesting sites. Shows the differences in every country from the trending twitter topics to even the amount of computer hacks.
