🚨🤦♂️ Ah, the classic tale of a student who thinks scraping personal data from classmates to build a stalker paradise is a "cool" idea. Turns out, university authorities and the police have a different perspective on this "really, really crazy" genius move. Who knew creating a digital witch hunt could end badly? 🙈📉

EFF to Arizona Federal Court: Protect Public School Students from Surveillance and Punishment for Off-Campus Speech

From bus scanners to AI analytics, a student's every move is tracked, creating a data trail that can follow (and potentially harm) marginalized students.
Convenience must not bypass due diligence. Demand transparency, governance, and the right to privacy.
