The first thing I ever touched was a Windows XP desktop, then Windows 7 laptop, then win8.

Then I got my first phone.

Curious about what kids these days have?

iPads? Phones?

Do kids just get used to a corporation being able to control what software they can install?

Because I feel like kids these days will get their first device and its either a phone or tablet and (regardless if its iOS or Android, sideloading restrictions begin in Android starting 2027 btw) are gonna get used to the cage that corporate has build and never venture out for freedom.

So this is it? Humans will get used to corporate digital cages?

    My nephew got one of those smart watches for kids. There’s no real games, the camera sucks, and he can only contact and be contacted by approved numbers but it’s nice to have.

    I like getting his goofy texts, too
