This reveals so much about how little we meaningfully discuss data choices in computer science education.
Data are at the locus of pretty much every tech policy issue - labor, bias, environmental, copyright, privacy, security, toxicity, safety, etc.
It is literally politics!

I teach computer science and challenge him to find any politics in my class. When political opinions start meddling with scholarship, it ceases being science and becomes activism.
