Back in March, Daily Wire investigative reporter Luke Rosiak wrote that a group of current and former teachers and others in the Loudon County School District were making a list of parents who oppose schools’ adoption of curricula based on critical race theory. Their goal was to “infiltrate” parent groups and spy on them, solicit “hackers” to silence parents’ online communications, and “expose these people publicly.”
It seems to be happening again in Arizona:
AZ Free News reports:
The Scottsdale Unified School District’s administration is scrambling to do damage control after a group of mothers discovered Governing Board President Jann-Michael Greenburg had access to a Google Drive full of personal information, documents, and photos of about 47 people, including children.
An email sent out Wednesday evening by the SUSD’s Communications Office sought to assure families that their personal and educational data is safe. However, the district also solely blamed the discovered digital dossier* site on Mark Greenburg, the father of Jann-Michael Greenburg.
…
Even though Mark Greenburg is listed as the Google Drive owner, records from an Aug. 17 special SUSD board meeting show Jann-Michael admitted sharing a computer with Mark. With Mark and Jann-Michael sharing a computer and a home, there is no way to know which of them has been uploading files (now known as the “G Files”) to the drive, according to concerned parents.
In addition, some parents say that despite Jann-Michael’s denial of involvement with the dossier, they believe there appears to be evidence that Jann-Michael has complete knowledge of the Google Drive files and had shared some of its contents in an effort to intimidate SUSD parents. Parents are calling that an “unacceptable abuse of power.”
The Google Drive files also included information on parents from neighboring school districts, as well as popular conservative radio show host, James T. Harris.
Just another school board keeping an eye out for those “domestic terrorists.”
BREAKING: Scottsdale Unified school board president Jann-Michael Greenburg has been caught assembling a dossier with confidential information on parents who oppose critical race theory—including photographs of their children.
He must resign.https://t.co/nDk3gTG3VF pic.twitter.com/XjT7R6qTH3

I've reviewed the dossier and Greenburg has assembled a disturbing range of information on parents: commercial background checks, criminal records, address histories, divorce records, business filings, personal photographs, and other sensitive data. Abusive.

LMAO: The dossier also includes screenshots and links to a lot of my work, which conservative parents had shared on social media. God bless the Scottsdale moms who poasted my content and exposed their creepy and abusive school board president. pic.twitter.com/pnOV37TqD3

Greenburg paid for extensive private investigation profiles on individual parents. This file is more than 160 pages, with information including home addresses, family members, phone numbers, mortgage data, traffic tickets, "known associates," and social security numbers. pic.twitter.com/GNxbMv2Xhc

Mr. Rufo, you may have this slightly wrong. My sons are students in SUSD. The issue has to do with forced masking of students that goes against the governors orders. These parents have been protesting that.

Point taken.
He is very lucky that the age of Tar and Feathers is long gone

Arizona education is a MESS right now, both on the state level and within many, many of the local school boards. Hoping for a widespread housecleaning here at some point.

I'm stuck between "i can't believe this is the world we live in" and "of course they would willingly cross that line"

Intimidating parents to silence their opinion on their kids education. It is hard to believe this is where we are as a society now. I hope they make an example of him.

SUSD's Greenburg's Claims Raise More Questions. Who's really using Jann-Michael Greenburg’s computer? He claims his father created the G-Files, but in a previous school board meeting, he claimed that although his brother's name showed up on the material, he was the actual author. pic.twitter.com/tkzqpwPXJI

I’m sure AG Garland will get on this.
