My point is that "digital natives" are a subset of the general population that cuts across generations. Perhaps the proportions are different, but I'd still bet that the baby boomers have a larger absolute number, even if the proportion is greater for younger generations. Are Steve Jobs, Steve Wozniak, or Bill Gates not "digital natives?" You'd have a hard time arguing that. In general, making an argument based on generations is, by definition, ageist. An easy test is just to, instead of saying "baby boomers" or "Gen X" try the same assertion with "black" or "jewish." If, after the substitution, the assertion sounds racist, chances are it was ageist before the substitution.
