      Maybe next they’ll make you prove you’re over 18 to buy a computer at the store. Maybe put them behinds safety glass too since they’re so dangerous. Or put them on the top shelf where kids can’t reach.

    It might not be so bad if it was just entering the age of the device’s user when setting it up, since in that case the system would be essentially just a standard for parental controls.
