"Companies are even creating apps so college administrators and coaches can spy on you," says Privacy Mom. Collegiate Nation announced today that as part of its Occupy Privacy campaign on college campuses, it is focusing on warning athletes. Everything a college athlete does on public sites is being monitored by companies that specialize in collecting data and reporting everything they know back to college administrators, athletic departments, advertisers, recruiters, and future employers. Spying on college students is big business, stated Evelyn Castillo-Bach, the founder of Collegiate Nation who is also known as Privacy Mom. Once the student activates one of these apps, everything the student does is reported back to coaches or college administrators, says Castillo-Bach, who launched Collegiate Nation to help students retain their anonymity while connecting with other college students. Public sites have ads and games and apps that report back to data bases everything you do, says Castillo-Bach who was interviewed on the subject of Employers, Schools Checking Your Social Media by Miami television earlier this year. Search engines are banned from seeing or tracking friend list, profile, photos, groups, private blogs and other private posts. All ads, third party apps and games are banned because they are back doors to tracking and extracting private information.
