but it's a big step for most of the people!
However the problem is that most people don't even think about switching from WA to Signal - and NEVER heard about conversations #XMPP
#Schools could / MUST do more! Instead they are pushing students into digital dependencies. School leaders avoid the hassle to think, they appreciate conformity.

#TrumpLies are too many for me to live #FactCheck. I’ll try to deal w/that shitshow later, tho I’ll highlight a few.
E.G.
Trump just claimed he’s stopped “government censorship” & “brought back free speech in America.” In reality, Trump has signed #ExecutiveOrders that’s required the govt to scrub certain words & phrases from the public domain, dictating “patriotic education,” & just today announced that #schools would lose federal funding if they allowed students to engage in certain protests.
#SurveillanceCapitalism Spreading In #Schools, Sidelining Role Of #Teachers.
My Take: putting children under 24/7 monitoring, is harmful to natural development + #autonomy.
Ex: intense security (like recent proposal to add armed taser drones + force children to train with them) may do little more than put kids in more fear.
