    "The most time-consuming part of evaluating web tools for educational use has got to be looking at the Terms of Service (also know as Terms of Use or Terms and Conditions). They can go on for pages, and are so often wrapped up in so much legalese that even if you manage to read to the end, there is no guarantee you will be any wiser. And yet we can't just ignore them; it is our duty as educators and as digital citizens to protect rights and understand responsibilities online."

No! You can't make money off my work that I shared FREELY under certain conditions! No! You can't just take it…even in the name of education! No! You can't just take it… even if AND ESPECIALLY BECAUSE you are a teacher!

    "You may wonder how the Facebook for Educators guide came about … A few months ago, Facebook recognized that a guide like this was needed. They asked me to write it. I accepted the offer on the condition that I could write without filtering or restrictions from Facebook. Facebook saw the value of a candid third-party opinion and agreed."

    "So, like every other one of the world's 1.28 billion monthly active Facebook users, you blindly agreed to Facebook's Terms and Conditions without reading the fine print. You entrusted your photo albums, private messages and relationships to a website without reading its policies. And you do the same with every other site ... sound about right? In your defense, Carnegie Mellon researchers determined that it would take the average American 76 work days to read all the privacy policies they agreed to each year. So you're not avoiding the reading out of laziness; it's literally an act of job preservation. So here are the Cliffs Notes of what you agreed to when you and Facebook entered into this contract. Which, by the way, began as soon as you signed up:"

  • of course no one reads them. I mean, most adults don't read them."
  • Most of those children have no idea what their privacy rights are, despite all of them agreeing to terms and conditions before starting their social media accounts
  • ...5 more annotations...
  • unwittingly giving away personal information, with no real understanding of who is holding that information, where they are holding it and what they are going to do with it."
  • Instagram's terms of use in total run at least seven printed pages, with more than 5000 words, mostly written in legalese.
  • teenagers said they understood very little about privacy rights on Instagram
  • registered at a postgraduate reading level
  • "Instagram, like many social networks, leaves the user with very little information to exercise their rights or any genuine privacy," the report said. "This exercise makes it clear that the current offering made by websites and apps to their users is not acceptable. Children and young people have the right to know how the relationship between their rights and the rights of the service that they have signed up to use, functions."
