Project idea: I’m going to make an ed-tech disclosure bot. I’m tired of seeing so little disclosure in education technology of financial relationships – by publications, investors, and educators alike.

I’d like the bot to retweet tweets where there is a lack of disclosure (in a story that’s linked to or in the tweet itself) – highlighting when someone is an investor or an advisory board member in the topic they’re tweeting about, for example, or highlighting when a publication shares an investor with the topic they’re covering, or….

I’m not sure I can automate this. Perhaps I could take a Twitter bot like @talkpayBotits code is on GitHub – and tweak it. (I like the idea of receiving DMs and tips.) I’ll also set up a subdomain on Hack Education so I can I list each Ed-Tech Disclosure Bot tweet and provided more information about the relationships.
