>"G Suite for Education allows schools to control account access and requires that schools obtain parental consent when necessary,"

Money quote from Google, it's a good headline but a weak case. Still sad imo though. Teens have grotesquely little data agency considering how commonly they get hyped as the most tech literate group in American media dialogues. The real problem though is parents, American parents love products that let you be your own nsa so the majority will never advocate policies that might jeopordize this new status quo.

And what if the parents said no? Their kids get left out of lessons and activities and tests?

Also, what if the parents, like most of the population, are technically illiterate and aren't aware of the consequences of allowing Google to have this data?
