A study was recently conducted on the effectiveness of Netflix VPN bans across different VPN platforms. Since Netflix provides its content on the basis of regions, this means that not all TV shows and films are available to watch in every country.

 

As a result, many users utilize VPN software to get access to Netflix content that may not be legally available to them. For instance, a user from a South Asian country could use a VPN service to get access to a server in a European country.

Netflix now allows you to monitor your child's activity

Parenting is not only fun and exciting; it is a huge responsibility to raise decent, sophisticated, and obedient children. Kids of today's generation are more attracted to cell phones and cartoons rather than playing physically. Moreover, most parents choose Netflix for their kids to watch cartoons as the platform has separate kids profile specifically for 'pre-school and pre-teen' kids, where only cartoons are available. To help the parents track their kid's activity on Netflix, the company has released a new feature 'Kids Activity Report' which will show a detailed view of what the kids are watching, on which program they are spending most of their time, which character do they like the most and the recommendations based on kid's interests.



Netflix will start sending an email regarding this new feature to all the parents who have enabled kids' profile on Netflix. The report will also share 'joke of the day' and coloring pages that include Netflix characters and shows, which can be printed out for the kids as an activity at home. Furthermore, a set of questions will also be there to ask your children about their favorite characters and shows. This is undoubtedly a great way for parents to monitor their kids' interests and activities and help them connect with their children better.

Tracking younger kids is extremely crucial for the parents so that they can prevent their kids from getting their minds polluted. Moreover, kids should also understand what they are watching and whether it is good for them or not. If older kids don't like the idea of getting tracked their activities tracked by their parents, it is a family matter, and parents can disable the report anytime they want.
