Seems like a weird and random assortment of items. Why was Google Hangouts mentioned, but not Gmail? What about Discord, Slack, etc? Or smart TVs? Almost felt more like guerrilla advertising for a few niche products.

I saw discord in there as well as smart TV platforms

Oh interesting; I wonder if the quiz just chooses a random assortment of a big list of tools?
