The U.S. Department of Justice announced its final settlement with the Federal Trade Commission against education technology provider Edmodo over alleged Children's Online Privacy Protection Act violations. "This order makes clear that edtech providers cannot outsource compliance responsibilities to schools, or force students to choose between their privacy and education," FTC Bureau of Consumer Protection Director Samuel Levine said. “Other edtech providers should carefully examine their practices to ensure they're not compromising students' privacy."
