“You are being fiat farmed by Big Tech” At least they are upfront on their bio.
This makes me think about how school districts and policies have allowed testing companies to become highly profitable with the increase in standardized tests on computers. Schools are deemed “in compliance”and receive government funds or are not penalized in a bureaucratic sense. Meanwhile, Pearson for example, makes billions on kids’ data. Unfortunately, innovating schooling models to prevent this is not on people’s radar because it appears that it’s just too much of a daunting task.

Daylight computer company is dead to me now. Boooooooo
I would choose the iPad so it's ONLY Apple that's snooping on my child and not some random tiny startup that maximizes profits by selling that data to 963 trusted partners.

👀 I was literally thinking of buying an @Daylight Computer Co tablet but now I’m not so sure. I’m hoping they can rectify this because I was excited for a no-blue light device :/ thank you for bringing this to our attention!!

Data is more important than money for companies
We are in the process of updating our privacy policy to be more accurate of our current data collection and privacy values. We made the mistake of working with a legal entity that used a lot of permissive language which is industry standard. Lawyers are expensive and often fear driven, but we have learned our lesson and take accountability for putting something out that isn’t indicative of the truth. The actual reality is that we do not collect ANY on device data right now. In future versions of our Sol:OS, we only want to collect anonymized analytics that will be able to be opted out of if preferred to in the system settings. The purposed of collecting this data will only to better understand device usage metrics, not customer behavior habits. You can actually verify this through network logs by inspecting network requests on existing devices using tools like HTTPToolkit [1] or Android Logcat  [2]. [1] [2] We are happy to answer any questions / clear up our stance on privacy as a consumer hardware product. We value this tremendously, and even more so for children using a Daylight. We appreciate the community calling this out. View quoted note →
