What is the age for a family computer in the living room that is used by multiple people without logging in and out?
I don't have to read the law to know it is stupid and worse than doing nothing at all. They could have made it so that parental controls were standardized and apps had to respect that, but instead they chose to make it shitty for everyobe.
Age of youngest user with access?
Cool, guess I won't play games rated higher than their age after they go to bed.
I have Super Hentai Simulator 3 installed on an account with a strong password and short idle lock time, guests can still autologin with no password
"Just make more accounts" doesn't apply to the shared family computer in the living room. That just means forcing everyone to create multiple accounts when they don't need to.
I don't really get the discussion. At least per that bill nobody gets forced to create multiple accounts. What it does is mandate a input field on account creation. (And a bit more.) Whoever sets up that shared family computer can put in what they like. Create one account or five. Thats up to them...
As the adult you can just make your own user account with your age and log out when you're done.
I am so sick of needing to make an account for every single thing so they can track me as an individual.
Making your own user account on a shared PC is just common sense. That way you can customize it for yourself and your kids don't have to see your and your wife's private photos.
Ok and you can still do that without this law.
