That’s all well and good, but Raspberry Pi had been positioned in the market as educational, entry-level, easy to understand and ideal for children learning Linux, Python, or electronics.

Perhaps some kids can circulate a list of those commercial products incorporating a Pi, and campaign to liberate and repurpose them. Win-win?

"campaign" lol. I can remember some of my youthful "campaigns" to liberate useful technology... I cant say I find them recommendable.
