  • I was contracted to work for a non-profit that helped teachers write and analyze student test scores for a few years. The non-profit ended when the CEO sold the company to another education company. The new education company has contracts with the department of defense in my country.

    When I reflect upon the outcome. It would seem that the department of defense now has direct access to many more students who test scores are low. All lined up and analyzed. And I’m the one that automated the deployment of that system. I just quietly took my checks until my contract was no longer renewed.

    From my point of view I did build a small part of the web. And I stood around and did nothing while the web/company/people around me were being consolidated. While the department of defense freely browsed some of the most vulnerable children/students in the country because they know poorer testing students are more likely to join the military for money.

    A lot of people are going to die because of that analysis system in my opinion; And to me, that means I am responsible.
