Nick @ The Linux ExperimentFrench authorities declare the use of Microsoft Office and Google Docs illegal in schools and education markets, as they don’t follow GDPR and might disturb later competition by making students used to these proprietary solutions.
Looks like it only applies to Office365 online and Google docs, not the installed MS Office suite. The fact that these companies are US based means there is no guarantee that student’s data isn’t accessed by the US government, which seems to be the main issue.

I would love to see people in the US more open to other alternatives. My kids were forced to use Google docs in school. Even after graduation they still use it even though there are better and free alternatives to it.
