Ecocide Google
“In 2023, Google imposed “expiration dates” on Chromebooks, restricting the length of time they’ll support these devices, even if the hardware remains perfectly functional. This year, Google will cease support for 13 Chromebook models. Next year, 51 more will join the list of unsupported devices. This essentially forces users to retire their Chromebooks, even though many are still in good working order.”
