| It may include all my friends from primary school and a photos of my late grandma. (Disclaimer: I'm so old that at 16 I didn't ever had email. Please don't delete all my old stuff.) |

Or might that be too subjective for current language models leading to many false positives? | |

| ▲ | johnisgood a day ago | parent [-] | | I am not sure I meant to reply to you, to be honest. It is an issue but so far the solutions are terrible. Outsourcing parenting to the Government or companies is also meh. I am sure there are parents who know of ways to reduce screen time for their children, it ranges from installing a program that does not let you on a website or start another program until and unless this and that, or take the phone from the kid's hand and go for a walk or study, whatever. |
