University Of Alabama Is Using A Location-Tracking App To Punish Students For Leaving Football Games Early


University of Alabama (U.S.)

To boil things down to a concerning reduction, a publicly-funded university used public funds to purchase an app that tracks students' location. The app can be deleted at any time and only tracks students while they're in the stadium, but leaving the stadium and/or ditching the app sends students to the back of the line for tickets to games that actually matter, like conference championship games featuring the omnipresent Alabama.
