社交媒体是北美年轻人社交的主要活动和网站之一，由于网络欺凌和色情短信的报道，人们对他们的社交隐私感到担忧，由于商业数据收集，他们的信息隐私也受到关注。美国学校和学区的一种趋势是通过第三方应用程序和软件监控和跟踪在校期间和放学后的学生社交媒体，以防止或减少由学生煽动并针对其他学生或整个学校的暴力，欺凌，威胁或仇恨的感知传播。本文将概述其中四家美国公司（Geo Listening，Varsity Monitor，Snaptrends，Digital Fly），并考虑有关年轻人隐私权和言论自由的数据监控政策和道德问题。
Social media is one of the top activities and sites for young people's socialization in North America, raising concerns over their social privacy, because of reported instances of cyberbullying and sexting, and their informational privacy, because of commercial data collection. A trend in schools and school districts in the United States is to monitor and track, through third party applications and software, student social media during and after school, in an attempt to prevent or reduce the perceived dissemination of violence, bullying, threats, or hate instigated by students and directed toward other students or entire schools. This article will provide an overview of four of these US companies (Geo Listening, Varsity Monitor, Snaptrends, Digital Fly) and consider the policy and ethical issues of data monitoring with respect to young people's rights to privacy and their freedom of speech.
