    We use Chromebooks at my work (along with the whole Google suite), and we are bound by the rules of HIPAA.

    Assuming you mentioning HIPAA and disabilities, you must probably work in the healthcare industry. What kind of backwater hospital/healthcare company uses chromebook?! I know chromebooks are prelevant in the education industry but healthcare… They are cheap but Google makes up that money through Google Workplace vendor lock in! Man… I have seen Linux running on hospitals even in 3rd world countries… If you can, please quit that job! A healthcare workplace using chromebooks will not give a damn to employees privacy!

      I was at a specialist’s office and noticed they were using Windows XP. This was 3 years ago.

        Windows XP might be more secure soon than any machine running Gemini

      I did care before COVID, and the chromebooks were the safe option. Some sites had desktop computers available, but those had no antivirus and we logged into the admin account with full permissions.
