Submission Text
I work with the Principal at our local elementary school creating a weekly newsletter for parents. The topic of students and the Internet comes up often. The most common comment is the targeting of children with advertising when they are visiting sites that have purported educational value. The idea that these sites might be installing cookies in order to assist in targeting advertising is abhorrent to say the least. Please regulate the content to stop the targeting of young children with ads over the internet.
