Chrome OS is a surveillance tool for Google and authorities, and should be illegal to give to minors.
It's actually illegal in EU, except for some reason EU is giving it a pass.
I agree, Linux laptops for everyone! Especially when we have immutable OS like Fedora Silverblue or Bazzite.
Does ChromeOS report everything you do to Google?
The Linux container is sand-boxed. but the chrome browser does by default send a lot of metrics back to Google.
EDIT: I only bought this device for experiments. It is a very low end, efficient laptop. I don't use it for anything else.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
