If you teach development, the first thing you should be teaching… before HTML, CSS, JS, etc., is ETHICS.

Teach your students to avoid 3rd-party surveillance-based APIs/components. Teach them to de-centre themselves… to build tools owned and controlled by the people who use them.

@aral sooo
Is anyone here up to that challenge?

Like we could make a git repo or a google drive and make an ethics for programming class (curriculum, planning, or whatever)

We can, as a community, build a course and then students can maybe demand their schools teach it?

Is that possible? Should we give it a go?

@alexesc @aral not to nitpick, but if you're teaching ethics, shouldn't you use something other than Google drive? Just saying... There are free software alternatives...

@alexesc @aral using unethical tech is too convenient. We need to teach ethics AND make convenient ethical tech...
