I have always been curious about this. Did you get them to use other services or did they stubbornly refuse and you just accepted it? I am talking using Chrome, using Windows, using social media like Tiktok or Facebook or Instagram, etc. Bonus points if you have kids because that is even more work in the privacy realm

    My wife and I negotiated that we don’t post kids photos, names, or specifics to open groups. Emailing them is okay. Posting to closed groups is okay.

    It’s been a few years, and it’s working out so far.

      We have a similar thing going. But my kids are getting to an age where they wanna use tiktok and post on insta. I think that beyond the privacy issues it’s actually a mental health risk. My wife thinks being excluded from what their peers are doing is an even bigger health hasard.

        We haven’t quite gotten to that point.

        My take is that kids can post non-identifying content as long as there’s no public comment section. I’m not sure how that’ll work out, but we’ll try it (or whatever we negotiate) when it comes time.
