This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
I think you’re being a little naive…
Circumventing parental controls that “couldn’t be circumvented” is what I did as a child that led to me being a computer programmer
No, they literally can’t be bypassed unless they figure out the passcode. Parental controls on iOS are part of the OS, not like the easily bypassed software you would install on a computer.
One of the ways I got around my parent’s settings after getting caught by simply resetting their password was by using alternate operating systems on livecds
Saying they literally can’t be bypassed is why I’m saying it’s naive to trust them implicitly
So… are you going to link the live cd that works on iPhones or just going to continue talking about the net nanny days? iOS is locked down. Nothing is bulletproof but a child isn’t going to find a way around it.
I only know how to get around my employer’s device settings for iOS. I would have to have access to your phone to try to get around them
The issue I have with your comment is “a child isn’t going to find a way around it” I was much more motivated to find a way around settings my parents set on devices when I was a child, and I definitely shared how to do it with my friends
Maybe your settings are secure, but it’s not trivial for most parents
