Dunno about Known, but the repo needs a LICENSE file. :)

No backsies, hey? ;)

Depending on the code, getting it to work on High Sierra might not be a big deal. It could be as easy as just rebuilding the project. But you’d need the source code.

I’m still on Sierra. Haven’t had a good reason to get High yet. Eventually, Apple will require it for the latest Xcode, and then I’ll update.

In the Australian pilot, users must first complete an online form on the e-safety commissioner’s website outlining their concerns. They will then be asked to send the pictures they are concerned about to themselves on Messenger while the e-safety commissioner’s office notifies Facebook of their submission. Once Facebook gets that notification, a community operations analyst will access the image and hash it to prevent future instances from being uploaded or shared.

They’re using the PhotoDNA algorithm already used with a shared database to blacklist images across several companies.

The Internet lets you easily reach the whole world. I don’t understand why any parent would up and go “yes, my toddler should definitely be wandering the breadth of the world alone at this age”. Geographical proximity doesn’t really apply online - “I let them off in a nice neighborhood” doesn’t count for anything when everything is a few clicks away from everything else. (Given societal expectations for helicoptering, it’s extra weird that people expect to be utterly hands-off in the Wired.)

The TL;DR for me is “yeah, the Internet has some sketch stuff still, maybe try, I don’t know, parenting – rather than trying to hand that responsibility off to YouTube”.

We watched some YouTube. With the kid. They wanted the same show over and over. Wasn’t much risk of algorithm surfing. Now they mostly want to see pictures or videos of octopi or eagles or lightning bugs on our phone, which we drive when we do that, and that only briefly.

Now we mostly use a Roku and Amazon Prime Video, Hulu, or Netflix. Playing shows we chose with them. If something sucks, we don’t let them watch it. And TV time is mostly limited to a half-hour in the morning and an hour or so in the evening. If we plan to watch a movie as a family, no TV in the morning.

On balance, I’m very convinced it has. Which is why it’s doubly frustrating when it lets us down.
