10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.
This title is horrible. People complain that parental software is a huge privacy concern and not fair in a parent-child dynamic as the "spying" only works one way. Yet, here we have a Republican saying "rules for thee AND ME" and people are mad that a parent is risking embarrassment to teach his offspring something he actually believes instead of the usual Republican just pick an issue off **the list ** and force it on random adults.
Yeah honestly this doesn't bother me (caveat that I literally just heard of this today and have zero context). It's funny and awkward and embarrassing but it doesn't bother me at all. I have enough other reasons to not like the guy and this doesn't make the list.
Editing to add: okay the tool he is using to do this is weird and I'm worried that it might be running over secret government content. That parts not okay.
Except he’s the Speaker of the House, 2nd in line of succession to the Presidency, and he’s given this app access to his phone, and who knows who else aside from him and his son have access to it and whatever sensitive information that may be on it.
Yeah that's the bit that bothers me more. If it were just his personal devices then meh, but I'm sure our officials don't keep a clean separation there.
Edit: the more I learn about this man the more I dislike him. Wow, it just keeps getting worse.
