Exactly, so more people than ever know how to use computers.
- Jensson 5y agoNot sure if that is a joke or not. But if it isn't I think you greatly underestimate how many knew how to use a computer 10 years ago. Office workers aren't a big enough share to say that more people than ever know how to use a computer.
- Grustaf 5y agoWhat category used to have a computer 10 years ago but doesn't now?
- Jensson 5y ago10 years ago people used computers for things that they use smartphones for today, like doing banking etc. So the category is everyone who feels they need a smartphone today but doesn't feel they need a computer today.
- Grustaf 5y agoAssuming this is true. What is the benefit to society or individual of blue collar workers owning computers in order to do online banking? Seems like a great benefit that they don’t have to deal with all the unnecessary complexity. Being forced to learn enough computers to log on to your bank doesn’t make you more employable.
