The one straightforward and extremely well-documented fact about kid's safety on the internet:

The *overwhelming* majority of child sexual predators, in the high 90s percent-wise, are right in your community. They're not on the Internet. They're at your church, your school, your kid's clubs, your sports activities, and -- sadly -- your family gatherings.

I recently discovered ntfy.sh and it is brilliant in its simplicity. I am currently rewriting my bash scripts to drop AWS SNS in favor of it.
