-<h2>On Privacy at School</h2>
-
-<address class="byline">by Richard Stallman</address>
-<hr class="thin" />
-<div class="article">
-
-<p>Wired published an article of advice for students about <a
-href="https://www.wired.com/story/how-to-protect-yourself-school-surveillance-tech-privacy/";>
-how to resist surveillance by their schools</a>.</p>
-
-<p>The advice it gives is valid as far as it goes, but it falls far
-short of what students need to know to resist all the threats.</p>
-
-<p>The article poses the question:</p>
-
-<blockquote>
-<p>How is student data secured?</p>
-</blockquote>
-
-<p>This question invites confusion. If someone claims to keep data about
-you “secure,” what does that mean? Secure <em>from whom</em>?
-The school's computers are unlikely to keep anyone secure from <a
-href="/education/governments-let-companies-snoop-on-students.html">
-snooping EdTech companies</a> that operate with the school's cooperation.</p>
-
-<p>“Using your own personal device” usually means using a <a
-href="/proprietary/malware-mobiles.html">snoop-phone</a>. It may protect
-you from snooping by the school and by <a
-href="/proprietary/malware-edtech.html">EdTech companies</a>, provided
-you never use it to visit a site that has anything to do with the school
-or an EdTech company and never do unencrypted
-communication <a href="#Note1" id="Note1-rev">[1]</a>.
-But the device was made by a computer company—usually <a
-href="/proprietary/malware-apple.html">Apple</a> or <a
-href="/proprietary/malware-google.html">Google</a>—that also made
-the operating system in it. That system always contains nonfree software that
-snoops on you plenty. Most <a
-href="/proprietary/proprietary-surveillance.html#SpywareInApplications">
-apps</a> for that snoop-phone are nonfree, and they snoop for various
-companies, often behind the back of the organization that commissioned
-development of the app itself. Encryption features or apps, if they are
-part of that nonfree operating system or nonfree themselves, are likely
-to snoop on users too.</p>
-
-<p>The only way to protect yourself against this is to <a
-href="/education/bigtech-threats-to-education-and-society.html">reject
-nonfree programs</a> (programs that are not free/libre) in your device.
-(Alas, iPhones entirely prohibit free software.) And even then, the
-hardware may have a back door, such as Microsoft's Pluton chip or the
-<a href="/proprietary/proprietary-insecurity.html#M201706050">Intel
-Management Engine</a>.</p>
-
-<p>Connecting a phone or computer to USB, even “for charging,”
-makes it vulnerable. Some <a
-href="https://www.wallofsheep.com/pages/juice";>security conferences</a>,
-with the purpose of educating the public about security issues, have
-installed a place full of USB sockets which were set up also to snoop on
-any computer (including a snoop-phone) plugged in there. The participants
-saw a USB jack and thought, “This is where we should charge our
-devices,” and assumed it was safe to use. When the conference
-organizers revealed the snooping, they taught these users a lesson about
-security.</p>
-
-<p>Privacy is not only for children and teenagers. We need to demand
-privacy for adults, too. This means that schools, stores, clinics,
-transportation companies, and other organizations people deal with must
-not demand you tell them who you are unless that is directly necessary,
-and must not otherwise try to find out.</p>
-
-<p><a href="#Note1-rev" id="Note1">[1]</a> To be secure for you,
-encryption has to be done with a free program that you have installed
-into your computer. If a <a
-href="/proprietary/proprietary-insecurity.html#M201309054">nonfree
-program running in your computer does the encryption</a>, including <a
-href="/philosophy/javascript-trap.html">JavaScript</a> sent to the
-browser by an online “service,” or if it is done in the <a
-href="/philosophy/who-does-that-server-really-serve.html">online
-“service” server</a> itself, it is not secure.</p>
