Kids need access to the internet at a super young age these days for school. If you don't have some sort of filter in place when they are in single digits or tweens you are just negligent. The internet has some dark corners.

Harder the surveillance, harder the kid works to bypass them

Kids are smart, good on OOP to teach their kids to use a VPN, about dual booting, and more

If the kid is old enough to purposely bypass the security, they're probably around the right age to find some of the stuff on the other side. But you don't want them accidentally stumbling into it because they searched something seemingly innocent.

This brought a memory rushing back of me and a family friend in the mid 90s using the family computer to find funny websites.

Us: "Let's search butt.com!"

My godfather: "NOOOOO!!!"
