   Take our new quiz! Guess why real students got surveilled and flagged for visiting websites from National Geographic, Washington Post, Scholastic, Wikipedia, and more, at https://www.redflagmachine.org

     @eff Would you mind moving your detailed description of GoGuardian (https://docs.google.com/document/d/1N21cssq4VnZgcJbSz2ECj6ItuOBZPpetjnouMLY05NY/edit) off of Google Docs and onto a more open and privacy respecting platform, or just put it on another page on the redflagmachine website?
     I can't even access it: I just get an error (no, it's not just my system).

     Thanks

     @eff I didn't do very well (but I think that's part of the point). Interesting quiz and doesn't take very long.

     @eff
     Reminds me of one I ran 20+ years ago which flagged the name 'Georgie' because it contained 'orgie' 🤷♀️ , and any references to fungi.

     It just shows the biases of whoever set it up.
