You mean they're going to turn Androids into Chromebooks.
Honestly, it sounds horrible, but for people who don't have a PC, I guess it could be a benefit.
It's great. We need to consider how many people live in 3rd world countries that only have access to Android phones.
If they can hook up a keyboard, mouse, and a monitor to those phones then it empowers these people to have more opportunities to compete and contribute to the digital space.
Giving them access to the tools of developers could be a godsend.
No, I'm not arguing that it's horrible from any other viewpoint than my own. And I'm super privileged enough to be able to both afford and have access to better options.
