You keep misinterpreting what I have said. Nowhere I have written that I didn't have access to a computer at home or that kids should not have a private computer. I really don't understand why you keep hammering this point.

In that setup, learning about computers basics is limited to people whose parents are proactive with it. A kid whose parents think no screens or no screens except for school is out of luck. A kid whose parents allow computer but don't teach anything useful on it is out of luck too.

Both elementary and high schools should and do teach those things. I don't know how they are supposed to teach that without school related access to computer.
