The thing that’s interesting about these policies and efforts in K-12 in education is that they are also couched in terms related to “digital inclusion” but you point to the irony of this especially when placed within the larger social, political and economic context as you specified. But digital inclusion is indeed important so I don’t want to let go of that term, but like you note, we do need to consider how these corporate approaches actually end up recreating digital exclusion and going against the professed goals. Nice job!
