@navi so your arguing against a specific implementation? memories while growing up are heavily skewed, that was a really though thing to learn for me while taking care of a kid for a year. there were even moments were it made sense to lie or heavily skew the truth, a thing i couldn't have imagined before.

@navi @freya @cas

a trust relationship is exactly the thing i am arguing for, i'm not sure how much you dealt with actual parenting and supervising children.

you're arguing against a cptsd survior, i had very a abusive parents. the reality is that we as a foss community should enable healthy foss tools, because the stalkerware will get developed anyway due to money incentives. and it will not rely on any age bracket stuff as the primary usecase for stalkerware is stalking partners.

@navi @freya @cas my god, the point of parental controls is tbe potential to turn of browsers and the "internet"

@ZanaGB @cas @freya yes. but at what point has the child learned enough? at what age is privacy more important? you can't supervise a child all day long unless your an "helicopter parent"

it's giving your kid training wheels with a bicycle so your sibling can take them on a small road tour, there isn't an exact day where a newborn turns into a kid turns into an teenager turns into an adolescent.

@freya
your argument sound like an ad hominem.

one can also implement parental controls to be not creepy; without it turning into an audit of the child's every activity or doing gps tracking. reasonable parenting is working on limits in cooperation/input of the child.

new features i didn't expect and am happly suprised about this release in gnome: https://ubuntuhandbook.org/index.php/2026/01/gnome-50-will-support-bedtime-daily-screen-time-parental-controls/amp/

@ariadne as long as it happens to non-company ai-assistants we have no leeway
