            For my child to participate in elementary school, and not be left out of comouter-based learning, I have to approve of her using a chromebook which is doing exactly what I’m sure we can all imagine with future marketable data sources: building profiles.

            “…and when they were 7 they liked…” “Try the color red, they used to prefer than, might be a good nostalgic pitch…”

        Depending on where they live, it could be more likely their first phone is an iPhone.
