Let's Work out the Bugs First


February 2, 2012

There’s a push to put digital textbooks in schools. They’ll be easier to update, which means that schools won’t have to shell out $70 per textbook every time a new discovery is made or a new edition is printed. They’ll also be easier for students to carry.

What I want to know is how the schools will stop people from hacking in and putting anything they choose to into the programs. (“Hey, Mom, did you know that Christopher Columbus discovered Pluto?”)
