Database tracking teens' daily text
messages, emails, & IMs over 4 years
“For the past four years, the University of Texas-Dallas
developmental psychology professor has essentially
wire-tapped 175 Texas teens, capturing every text
message, email, photo, and IM sent on Blackberries
that she provided to them, creating a rich database
that now contains millions of funny, explicit, sexual,
and inane messages for academic study. Half a million
new messages pour into the database every month.
This summer, she’s adding Facebook content to the mix
as well. The teens sacrificed their privacy for science…
and a free smartphone, data plan and unlimited text
messaging.”
