*New takedown tool*
It’s easy to hack into accounts bc we can find most email/phone online, plug those into data breaches, then find passwords & login as you.
🔒Google launched a new tool for sensitive detail takedown requests🔒Here’s how to remove your contact info for free:
ALT Start by googling your name and add the word address, phone number or email address at the end. Then click the 3 dots to the right of the result.
ALT Then scroll down and in the bottom left hand corner click “remove result”.
ALT Tell Google why you want to remove the result next, including “shows my personal contact info” or “shows my contact info with an intent to harm me” and more.
Diversify your portfolio. Works on so many levels!

Disappointed in the @washingtonpost, which uses California, a clear outlier in these data, to argue that there's no correlation between school closures and learning loss. Also contradicted by more granular analyses (emilyoster.net/wp-content/up…) washingtonpost.com/education…
