Debbie Reynolds “The Data Diva” talks to Jesper Graugaard, Father of the Danish Chromebook case and Danish GDPR Activist. We discuss his concerns about the digital age and its impact on his children's education. He recounted how his children's introduction to technology in school, particularly through the use of Chromebooks, raised concerns about privacy and data security. His distress over discovering his son's unauthorized social media profile, created using personal information without consent, led him to confront the school. The school's dismissive response further fueled his determination to advocate for better safeguards to protect children's privacy in the digital education landscape in Denmark. We discuss the complex case involving the Danish Data Protection Authority (DPA) and the use of Google Workspace for education in Danish schools. Jesper outlines the legal challenges, negotiations with Google, and the broader implications for privacy and data protection in public schools and minors. The discussion also touched on the impact of the case across Europe, raising concerns about handling personal data and the need for national solutions to address privacy and cultural differences. Additionally, the conversation explored the intersection of privacy, data protection, and safety in the context of public education. The podcast concludes with a conversation filled with mutual appreciation and gratitude for each other's work. Debbie highlighted the significance of personal stories in advocacy, acknowledging Jesper’s unique perspective as a concerned parent and advocate for children's data rights and his hope for Data Privacy in the future.
