Overall I do object to content providers pushing the responsibility for vetting content onto parents. Especially when one considers that, in the UK at least, broadcasters such as the BBC and ITV, are required to do this themselves for both broadcast and streaming, and for broadcast operate a 9pm watershed for content suitable only for adults[0], whereas streaming services charge higher and higher subscription fees and simply don’t bother. Rude.
[0] You can of course still choose to allow your kids access to this content but you effectively have to opt in rather than opting out.
- infecto 1y agoAgree. Most of the ones I have tried have felt extremely clunky to the point it felt easier building a local collection via plex. It’s an unfortunate after thought. I don’t want my kids to shun technology but I also don’t want them to be taken by an algorithm.
