I take it you don't have kids. The stacks of ads in apps for kids is nuts and Amazon will gladly feed them to you. Walk away for 5m to feed let's and come back to your kid watching a trailer for some dumb movie. Take it away because you have to avert your gaze for a moment and your 5m chore becomes a 30m tantrum. It's only been made worse by social distancing and no opportunity to learn how to interact with other people.
Think of it like a child safety lock: you only need them until they can figure them out. By the time they know how they work, you can have a conversation with them about being safe around the house.
On the matter of ethics, while I don't feel inclined to filter the world away from older kids, I'm firmly believe you're wrong. There's nothing unethical about making choices for your kids until they're old enough to make informed choices. The amount of garbage online (revenge porn, sexual degradation of women, red pills) makes easy for kids to find bad information at an age where they can't process is correctly. Parents determine what age that is because that's their role and it's entirely situational.
- dependenttypes 7y ago> The stacks of ads Found your issue, go and use an adblocker (or dns-based adblock filtering) > revenge porn Indistinguishable from normal porn > sexual degradation of women Just because you are not into extreme bdsm it does not mean that it is garbage. > red pills Your 2.5 year olds won't be able to read it. If they somehow find a way then you simply have to explain to them why you think that it is wrong. The only "bad information" are straight up lies.
- earthboundkid 7y agoMy dude, you're upset about a 2 year old having filtered internet. May I suggest the concrete thing is not what's really upsetting you?
- dependenttypes 7y agoNo, this is not my issue. Please re-read my post.
