📣 The rush to add AI into everything is a big threat to privacy, as we've been saying.

#k12sysadmin toolkit day 3. The story of a wee fella having a bad day. Standing in an orange desert with a cloud over his head. He travels to a green river bank crosses a blue river and ends up in brown field. Geek bragging points if you can guess what I use this to remember.
