The Associated Press broke a story this week that software designed to allow parents to monitor their child's online activities is actually selling what the child chats as marketing data. This software, marketed under the name Sentry or Family Safe, is monitoring online activties for parents, but they are also selling information from what the user says in chat.
This is another example that supports the importance of training not just students but their parents too about safe and ethical behavior in an electronic world.
