@neil I think we all realise that eventually that verification data will be leaked/‘hacked’… photos, names, driving licence details etc.
It's not always as simple as it could be but the tech which children use should be as locked down as possible. Parental controls blocking search for example. Perhaps efforts should be focussed in improving those controls + educating parents?
Then there's the whole VPN issue. Those are easy for anyone to install, use, and get past these rules.
@andycarolan @neil Everyone parents the way they think it’s right.
I personally think it’s more about parents keeping a general eye on their kids and being aware of what they’re doing on their devices, rather than locking down every single thing.
@ravipatel Well, my child is only 9, so I lock down a fair bit. As he gets older, I unlock more.
I think it's also somewhat dangerous to block access to the things their social group/friends have access to as that could have negative effects on their social development. Again, as you said, keeping a general eye on what they are doing. @neil
@andycarolan @neil My kids don’t really use Safari so that’s a big vector that isn’t yet a concern.
We did from YouTube to YouTube kids but they generally watch videos about Lego and Frozen
