None of those have anything to do with Google for Education contracts, and I hope you realize that.

I really do not understand how anyone can give Google the benefit of the doubt in 2026. They literally make the law. They only adhere to the law when it makes financial sense.

Would anyone be shocked if they did? Tech firms seem to be immune from the law.

After PRISM and Room 641A, anything is possible.
