I've seen questions about the #instructure #canvas leak, to the effect of "why's the data so dangerous if there's nothing financial in it?"
There are identifiers, for one thing.
But I think the real threat is... look, students send instructors some really heavy and confidential stuff in Canvas messaging sometimes. Health stuff. Family stuff. Relationship stuff. Occasionally even crime stuff.
I really am relieved that I direct students to email. I feel horrible for what could happen.
