    So should the supermarket check the ID before selling alcohol, or is it the parent’s responsability too?

    Horrible comparison since the supermarket/liquor store doesn’t enter your info into a database but just checks your DOB to make sure you are old enough. At least in the US.

    Jokes aside, I think the problem is that most parents are not technically capable of configuring a router at home, and even if some did, as most don’t kids would just go to those homes or use those phones to watch it, I guess?

    Hence my inclusion of a nontechnical option: device lockers. As far as kids using someone else’s device at someone else’s home you can’t protect kids from everything everywhere all the time. You can talk to the parents of other kids and explain what you do and why. You could even offer your technical expertise, if you have it, to do the same for them or share links to device lockers.
