Barcelona schools put their hands up for open source
In 2018, a group of families in Barcelona raised concerns over the collection of their children’s data by companies like Google that provide the educational software that schools were using in the classroom. As one of the mothers, Cecilia Baio, expressed it, the families did not want “our children to see that their right to privacy is under threat and be the forerunners of the business that Google is in, collecting our data to create products that influence our behavior.”
