I've sued i-Ready | Answering your questions (with attorney Andy Liddell)

So…I’ve sued another EdTech company. Here's a direct link to information on the lawsuit.This time, it’s Curriculum Associates — the multi-billion-dollar maker of i-Ready, used by more than 14 million children in grades K–8, including my own.In this episode, I break down why we’ve filed a lawsuit alleging that Curriculum Associates’ core business model depends on harvesting massive amounts of student data, monetizing it, and allegedly sharing children’s personal information with dozens of third parties for commercial purposes. We further allege the company builds deeply invasive psychological and behavioral profiles on students — profiles that can follow them and potentially harm them.I never consented to this. And neither did millions of parents.Sending our children to public school is a legal right. We should not have to expose them to commercial data trafficking just to get an education.With the average school district using thousands of EdTech tools each year — and each child accessing dozens — the question isn’t whether this is happening. The question is whether parents ever gave meaningful, informed consent.Joining me is Andy Liddell, attorney with the EdTech Law Center, to answer the questions flooding in from parents and teachers:What exactly are we alleging?What data is actually being collected?Is academic growth tracking the same as data mining?Can parents opt out?Is this a class action?What can teachers do?And what do we say to critics who claim this is just fear-mongering?If you’re a parent, teacher, or school leader, this conversation is one you cannot afford to miss.If you’re interested in learning more or potentially joining an EdTech-related lawsuit, visit: edtech.law.Because this isn’t just about i-Ready.It’s about whether our children’s data belongs to them — or to corporations.
