19.01.2022 Just a little cyber safety note for some parents. There are sites such as AirTasker which will offer money and free clothes or incentives in exchange for pictures of your children that will apparently be used on their social media. I recently spoke to a member from the Australian Federal police and he mentioned that a lot of these are not what they seem, the pictures end up being circulated on unsavoury websites, regardless of how harmless they seem. ... The other issue is that people upload the photo forgetting all the data is embedded into that photo. It takes 5 seconds to work out where and when the photo was taken. This is referred to as Meta data- it contains locations, times, sometimes even names of the people if there is face recognition. Im not saying they are all like that, but just be aware. Pictures will and do get used, just be mindful about where they will end up. A great resource for more information is the Goverment eSafety website, which has lots of parent friendly information. https://www.esafety.gov.au//staying-safe/photos-videos-and

17.01.2022 If you have a family with Children who use iPads and iPhones this maybe helpful. Today Apple released iOS 12, one of the biggest features is a new thing called ScreenTime. ScreenTime allows you to monitor and control when your children can use the devices along with which apps, for example you can block games across the day except between 4pm and 5pm or allow them only 30 minutes across the week. After this time is used it will disable the app. Its a very easy way to control... your Childs use of the device. There are now no excuses for kids being on devices late at night when they shouldnt be. The best part of this is that you can control it from your own device, so you dont even need to physically use their iPad. Along with this you get a weekly report of how they are using the devices - what times, which apps and how often they pick up the device. I found a guide here which shows you how to set it up. Before you do this, your devices need to be updated to iOS 12. https://9to5mac.com//ios-12-how-to-set-up-screen-time-as-/
