Bill Gates Brings NSA-esque Surveillance to Children

Rupert Murdoch with Bill Gates



Summary: Plutocrats are using US schools to indoctrinate, control, and even spy on tomorrow's adults

Compatibility prison is what many schools leave students in. They teach children habits which only help them become unwanting/unwanted customers of an abusive company and files which are written by these children are not even readable several years down the line (hence school work becomes self-burning). This is the legacy of Microsoft in schools -- a legacy which the Gates Foundation is working hard behind the scenes to enforce. The upgrade treadmill is all they care about; it has nothing whatsoever to do with education and everything to do with Microsoft's revenue. It's corruption. Remember that Facebook, for example, is not obligatory, whereas schools are.



But Gates' rogue legacy in schools goes much further than all this. As we showed before, Gates now uses schools to spy on children for profit. It's about profitable indoctrination, shrewdly disguised using euphemisms like 'Common Core'. One one article put it the other day: "There are also concerns about the longitudinal data system that goes along with Common Core. The system is designed to collect up to 400 data points on each child, which can include personally identifiable data, she said. The data will be collected by a company called inBloom, created by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation."

Schools must not use software that spies on children; since nobody knows what proprietary software actually does (nobody except few developers) it must never be used in schools, either. Gates is working to make this the norm by mislabelling proprietary spyware "open". If not students, then parents and teachers should be up in arms, uniting to stop this injustice.
