Just because handcuffung is normal in the USA, that doesnt make it normal or sensible. No one gets cuffed in a normal traffic stop or house visit in the UK for example.

That's not neither, it's one of the options.

No, I don't think it's unreasonable to have a technical level of control over young kids devices in partnership with close supervision. It's that or no phones until they're 16.

Oo that looks neat. I'm wondering how I've missed it!

Good suggestions but I'm not convinced that's true.

It's certainly possible to lock some Android devices down hard without rooting them. See Samsung Knox as an example. Even a pro will have a hard time getting around that.

I trust my kids to mostly only use the devices how I say. The security is mainly to keep their mum happy and to keep them from spur of the moment bad descisions with their clicks and time.

What's the best way to restrict my Android devices to only use approved apps? I want to manage the whitelist remotely.

Bonus points if I can keep everything in-house, on my home server or similar via my existing VPN.

This is for my kids' future phones. Ages 12 to 16.

The cars and walkers are both as close as they can safely be while moving?

Ew, Joe Rogan.

I'd laugh but that sounds like 8 kids had their lives ruined by some idiots.

Talking to hotel staff. About networking. Yeah.. uh.. Good luck!

MTU 1280 fixes all MTU problems, at a cost to performance.

Ah, fair enough then.

If they don't allow you to reject in two clicks then they're violating the EU regulation.
