I can’t be the only one who finds it extremely worrying how eager people are to hand a US company a de facto monopoly over higher education annotations?

A company with a very narrow vision of what annotations should be like to boot?

@baldur wondering if you're thinking of Hypothesis or Google Docs. Remark is a special kind of hell I had to suffer through for a client once.

@pkra I was thinking of Hypothesis in this specific case but I have the exact same worry about Google Docs and Google's increasing chokehold over education.

The difference in Hypothesis's case is that the value of web annotations in education is still, well, hypothetical. (Which is a concern about ed-tech in general, tbh.)
