"Doodle-4-Google" is so much more than an art contest. Sure, the game,
which received 33,000 entries last year, celebrates "the creativity of
young people" by having them send in a drawing under the theme "What
I’d like to do someday …" But, there's another component, as well. It
also helps Google collect some very personal data on students K through
12. Along with the submission, the contest's initial Parent Consent
Form asked for the child's city of birth (not current city, mind you),
date of birth, the last four digits of the child's social security
number, as well as complete contact info for the parents.
