This is not an option as school, at least in my region, requires devices directly since 4th grade and indirectly even earlier for homework.
Devices move between networks so having controls directly on the device is helpful.
Your argument seems like arguing that there should be no local access permissions on files and just let the network handle everything.
- inetknght 3y ago> Your argument seems like arguing that there should be no local access permissions on files and just let the network handle everything. Quite the contrary. Your local files are given to you by your local device. It's up to your local device to ensure that those files are properly access controlled. But things on your network are given to you by your network. It should be up to your network to ensure that those things are properly access controlled. It should be up to you to ensure that you don't connect to networks which don't have proper access control. > school, at least in my region, requires devices directly since 4th grade If school requires things then school should provide things. > indirectly even earlier for homework Homework should be done at home. Are you saying that you don't have control over which devices on your network are able to access which things online? You should fix that.
- prepend 3y ago> If school requires things then school should provide things They do. What’s your point? My point is that parental controls are useful because kids must use devices. So protecting kids while using those devices is important.
