Some Apple users say its parental controls aren’t working properly. A CEO who has 4 kids called it ‘frustrating.’::Parents told The Wall Street Journal they have to continuously check their Screen Time settings to ensure their children’s usage is limited.
Expecting technology to raise your kids is one of the key reasons humanity is on the downward trend intellectually. How about actually spend time with your kids teaching them right from wrong rather than expecting a multi billion dollar corporation that actively uses child and slave labour to build its products to raise your child for you. Always find these types of articles to be brilliantly hilarious. “I’m a CEO, someone else or something else needs to raise my kids!”
The mainstream tech/software industry was built on abusive tactics and nonfree software. The only thing I can recommend to people is to de-productize their computers and try to use free software whenever possible.
Even if you control what a child sees/uses on a apple device, you’re still perpetuating the injustice of apple’s products and now setting up that child to use their products in the future. In essence, you’re stripping the child’s software freedom in the end.
The youth of the generations after us need to be educated on their fundamental software freedoms, and how the loss of those freedoms leads to endangerment.
You may feel fine forfeitting your software freedom, but it’s an injustice to do that onto others especially preteens and teens.
Maybe don’t give your kids a goddamn phone.
Be the parent and tell them no.
Oh no! Not a random CEO’s family!!
THE HORROR!!!
Why are the opinions of some random CEO of a company that isn’t even named even in this article? It is irrelevant and doesn’t even make me want to read the article.
The assumption is that CEOs are smart. In reality that’s not always the case. The person the article mentioned could be a total nut job lol I think that pillow guy is a CEO right? Did they ask him what he thought about it?
I’ve read stories about IT/security people setting up a good secure system and then being told by some c-suite executive that it’s too hard and to either give them an exception that might allow them to reuse some simple password or maybe walk it back to a less secure system for everyone.
Edit: plus on internet forums, anyone can be a CEO. I’m not a CEO but I am a space admiral and if any news outlet wants to quote me for this or any other post, I insist they refer to me as “an annonymous space admiral”.
