Internal Google documents, revealed in a recent child safety lawsuit, show the company viewed Chromebooks and its education tools as a way to onboard kids early creating "brand trust and loyalty over their lifetime."
A 2020 presentation described schools as a pipeline for future users.
Google says the documents mischaracterize its work, which prioritizes helping students and teachers with strong privacy safeguards in school accounts.
