Prohibit Lightspeed Worldwide

The Issue

I am a passionate gamer, and like many others, I have experienced the frustration of having my favorite games at school blocked by Lightspeed. This software not only restricts access to various games but also invades our privacy by tracking our Chromebooks. It's not just about gaming; it's about our fundamental right to our privacy.

Lightspeed Systems is a company that provides network security and filtering tools for schools. While it's goal is to create a safe environment for students online, it's methods are often overly restrictive and invasive. According to data from Lightspeed Systems, 32,000 schools in 39 countries use Lightspeed. This means millions of students are potentially affected by these restrictions and privacy concerns.

We understand the need for internet safety in educational settings, but believe there NEEDS to be a balance between online safety measures and personal freedom. We call on policymakers worldwide to reconsider their reliance on such invasive and restrictive software such as Lightspeed.

Join us in this fight against unnecessary restrictions and invasions of privacy. Sign this petition today!
