Unpopular opinion: Your kids do not actually have freedom if you’re tracking them.

This is just false, and your definition of ‘freedom’ is nothing but sophistry.

Agreed. My wife and I are both on iOS so there is no need for this feature. Our daughter when she is old enough for a cellphone, would be the one I’d use this for since she can’t turn it off.

This is a useful feature. If you are in an abusive household, then yes you should have as much financial separation as possible. For those that are in a happy and functional family with kids that you want to allow freedom for, this provides a measure of safety if you need it for potential emergency’s or if they aren’t answering the phone or whatever.

I swear the UK is as dystopian as the US and even worse in a lot of ways.

It literally always has been and that fact is why the US even exists.

Hey guys open source is great you can look at all the code and therefore there are no security backdoors etc. Also here are a bunch of pre-compiled blobs in the repo, don’t worry about those, but they are required to run the program.

Then maybe don’t post it at all?
