Apps are one of technology’s greatest inventions.
They’re so easy to use that even a halfwit with shears for hands can discover tomorrow’s weather or the latest broccoli restaurant in Brooklyn. (It’s called Broccolyn. Surely you’ve been there.)
Sometimes, though, an app’s fluid simplicity can sail you into dangerous waters, such as allowing a 14-month-old little girl buy a car.
Sorella Stoute, the toddler in question, was just being a curious toddler when she played with her dad’s smartphone.
As KOIN-TV reported, she appears to already have a keen talent for using dad’s coins to buy things. Even if she doesn’t quite know what she’s actually doing.
Please imagine Paul Stoute’s delight when she bought him a 1962 Austin-Healey using his eBay app.
Sorella is very fond of surprises, so she didn’t tell dad anything. Not so much as a whisper.
