Hi!

Apparently not. The U.S. Federal Trade Commission continues to launch investigations into complaints about violations of the April 2000 Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act. The commission has recently levied large penalties against companies—from toy makers to video-app providers—that have covertly collected and shared personal information on children. Teachers must remain vigilant against these unacceptable invasions of our students’ privacy, not to mention the sanctity of our classrooms.
