UChicago News: UChicago, NYU team find online education tools pose privacy risks. “A group of researchers from the University of Chicago and New York University studied online learning and shared their findings in a paper that explored how educational technologies get into schools and what privacy risks these technologies pose to students. The paper, which will be presented at the upcoming ACM CHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems, discloses that many of the technologies were unvetted before they were used with students, possibly leading to critical data security risks.”
