When I tell parents that secretly spying on their kids' internet activities is not a great look, they ask me "Well, what SHOULD I do?"

There is no all-purpose parenting answer, but this report from Malwarebytes outlines many of the key considerations: https://www.malwarebytes.com/resources/attachments/parenting-and-growing-up-online-10-2022.pdf

@evacide I have told people to stop putting spyware on their kids devices for years and it always ends so badly. They never listen to me.

@hacks4pancakes @evacide my answer to this is usually “educate your kids about risks, tell them there’s plenty out there that represents the best and worst of humanity, once they see something they can’t unsee it, you won’t be able to stop them if they really want to find something, and make sure they know they can always discuss anything with you”.
