When a student logs into a school-issued device, at home, at midnight, in their bedroom, who's watching? Platforms like Gaggle, GoGuardian, and Navigate360 give schools real-time access to student activity across devices and accounts, flagging messages for administrators and, increasingly, law enforcement. These tools are marketed as safety infrastructure, but they function as something else: a system that pre-classifies students before any due process exists and routes flagged behavior toward criminalization rather than support.
