The macOS parental controls are garbage that rarely work correctly or as they appear they should - which Apple a few months ago even admitted to an irate journalist that, yeah, they have problems. I’ve tried using them - they are unusable. What’s the point of parental controls that randomly let you open private windows in Safari, without filtering, after a few hours of being logged in because the daemon crashed? It’s pointless and actively dangerous as a parent thinks they are working, but they aren’t. Windows parental controls - what’s the point when you can’t disable Windows Copilot or Edge Copilot or the Bing search suggestions in the taskbar or the Microsoft News feed on new Edge tabs? Or when it comes preloaded with the Movies and TV and Microsoft News apps full of junk? Or when Microsoft Office lets you embed videos from Bing without respecting parental control SafeSearch preferences? The parental controls on Windows are wildly insufficient. Nintendo Switch? I was stunned. Whole device, no granular per-user settings? What about families that can’t afford one per child? No ability to disable the eShop or force an eShop rating within the parental controls app? No ability to set a PIN code for just using the Switch? No ability to hide, say, M-rated titles for older kids from younger kids? Modern parental controls suck, either are incomplete or don’t work, and are unfit for purpose.
