Lack of updates leave these laptops vulnerable to attacks

, parents and environmentalists wrote a letter asking the tech giant to provide important software updates to Chromebooks.

Everything was okay at first, but in the years since their purchase, the lack of technical support from Google is causing serious problems even if the hardware runs fine.

Mercury News goes on to explain, “These inexpensive computers are set to expire three to six years after their release.” It’s a short time frame that Lucas Rockett Gutterman, director of the Design to Last initiative, calls “absurd”.
