There are more people in poverty without a computer than you realize. Now write me a 5 paragraph essay with correct source citation on your smart phone.
The point is that your argument falls apart considering it kept being propped up by your assertion that kids can just use the library computers if they’re too poor to have a computer at home.
But that doesn’t matter; you’re not actually here to debate in good faith.
“When our position on an issue is no longer based on curiosity and the desire for the truth, but a desire to win a debate. When someone reaches this stage of discourse, there’s no need to try and persuade them.”

Debate Pervert:
“When our position on an issue is no longer based on curiosity and the desire for the truth, but a desire to win a debate. When someone reaches this stage of discourse, there’s no need to try and persuade them.”
That wasn’t my argument, and is still a viable option. Libraries still exist.
My point and argument was: It is the schools decision on what happens with school hardware.
Have any thing to say to my point without being combative? Or do I add you to the pile of people not worth interacting with in the future?
Many of the kids affected have no access to another device. The whole reason schools supply hardware now is because it’s needed to access their educational materials, and it’s massively inequitable to only have students who have money able to develop their skills at home.
I understand the difference between a laptop and PC thanks.
Now imagine if, and hear me out, one didn’t bring school hardware home so some “creepy IT administrator” doesn’t have access.
“Save the kids” arguments always fall flat on the face when the solution is as simple as leaving school devices at school.
They have to take it home for homework.
No, they don’t. I am sure the majority have a computer or smart phone at home, and if not libraries exist for a reason.

Yeah it’s a good thing homework doesn’t exist.
Good thing for home computers, smart devices, and libraries eh?
Good thing nobody is poor!
Good thing poor people have access to public libraries. I know from experience.
There are “book deserts” where it can be difficult to visit a public library.
There are plenty of articles showing how libraries across the country are closing, usually in poor neighborhoods.
Sounds like a bigger problem than schools monitoring the use of devices issued to children.
Might want to get that sorted.
