Earlier this year, Indonesia’s Attorney General announced an investigation into why authorities chose Chromebooks as client devices when a pilot of the machines pointed out they’re not useful without reliable internet connections – a situation that’s common across Indonesia.

That's a really bad outcome. To be fair, Google itself doesn't seem to be directly involved (although they had to have known about this limitation).
