I am, uh, very much behind the times in tech news. I'm sure this is old info to most everyone else, but I'm curious what others think.

Like the MacOS, Android is built on a LINUX kernel. Interestingly, Android was originally meant to run on cameras and was adapted to smartphones later (presumably to compete against Microsoft believe it or not).
Fuchsia has a custom kernel and is designed from the ground up to be run on smartphones, tablets, and smart devices of all kinds (e.g. speakers, TVs, etc). Presumably, this will lead to better integration between your smart oven and your smart lights or something. Now your smart toilet will have an even easier time telling Google how many times you poop in a day, so they can figure out which targeted ads to flash in your face while you try to read the news on a web page. Yay for technology!
This could possibly replace Android and ChromeOS.
Anyway, what do you guys think? Will this make smart devices better? Will this complete Google's dominance over the last shreds of our privacy? A bad idea doomed to fail because ChromeOS already proves that Android apps run in an emulator can suck big sweaty donkey balls?
