so the school takes on that responsibility, as deputized by the parents.
Kids don't get unfettered access to the streets while at school. They can't take their bikes and ride out at will. What makes the internet and devices any different? The devices provided by the school should be lockdown-able, and kids should not be provided their own device unless there's a parental lock (which is enabled during school hours, and is similarly locked down).
Each school brews its own system more or less.
ok then make it work so. i feel it's like this thought flow:
- A causes B. and B is a problem.
- why not do C which causes not B.
- ahh, this wont work because it's A what is now, and C is not.
Google is basically its own private internet. It caches content so you can access all sorts of terrible stuff just from Google.com (and its related domains).
But if you cut Google you cut Google Classroom - which is required.
And Google Classroom itself has many workarounds.
This isn’t just a Google problem. The centralization of the Internet around a few mixed content domains really kills conventional filtering.
Paradoxically, there are so many centralized domains that even if you can block one, it’s just a game of whack a mole.
Eventually you just block the whole internet - and then what’s the point? Take away the 20 most popular mixed content platforms, messaging, etc, and you’re effectively blocking the whole internet.
The kids can’t contact their friends, watch educational videos, or any other legitimate use.
