Currently we have Immersive Reader enabled at the account level but turned off in a few sub-accounts (i.e. Foreign Languages and our English Language Institute) because of the Reading Preferences feature. This feature would enable students learning things in other languages to use the Immersive Reader improperly to get translations, etc. But with this new change now we cannot control that. Technically, we cannot do anything in a sub-account which would let us control the use of Immersive Reader. Either it is turned on for all automatically, or if not enabled at the account level, each and every user has the ability to turn it on. This makes for more confusion and questions about Immersive Reader and our users. And now after carefully checking with these departments, we have to go back and basically tell them there is nothing I can do to prevent students in their Canvas courses from enabling Immersive Reader and possibly using it inappropriately. I know it is possible to use these translation features in certain browsers like Edge, etc. But in Canvas it is right in front of them.
Also, why if you are doing this wouldn't you just include it with what is being planned in October when you add features like it can be used with the Syllabus, etc. It is like every two weeks something is changing. At least I could give bad news with some good news.
