Researchers break Apple's iPhone and iPad activation lock

A lock is only good at protecting things if it actually stays locked. The activation lock in iOS, for example, makes it very hard for someone other than the owner to wipe an iPhone or iPad and set it up as a new device. Very hard, but not impossible.

Two different bugs have recently been discovered that could allow someone to bypass Apple’s activation lock. One impacts devices running iOS 10.1 and another on the most current version of the software, iOS 10.1.1. Expert workaround exploited a weakness in the iOS device setup process, and he tested it on a locked iPad he purchased from eBay.

May iPad harm children?

When throwing tantrums kids should be given time to calm down on their own rather than distracted with smartphones and tablets. It might be tempting to hand over an iPad to a screaming child when all else has failed to calm them down.

But child psychologists say it may be stunting youngsters' emotional development, because they do not learn how to control their emotions. Researchers found that children need to find ways of self-regulating their feelings rather than masking them with distracting programmes or games. It has been noticed that increased television time decreases a child's development of social skills and language.

How to tame your iPad: a beginner’s guide to protecting your child’s tablet

Children are crazy about PCs. However, it is important that this enthusiasm be managed properly; without something that we call “kids management,” this interest might turn into obsession and lead to early isolation characteristics with unpredictable consequences.

This obsession may cause children to react to separation from their PCs, as well as their parents’ attempts to bring them back to the real world, with uncontrollable hysterics. Kids management is a complex psychological concept where each parent chooses their own way. The ability to wisely manage ‘tablet entertainment’ is not acquired by default, but instead it is seamlessly integrated into an overall system of education.

Why did Steve Jobs ban kids from using iPads, iPhones?

A lot of people can be surprised that Steve Jobs forbid his kids from using new devices, including those that he created. During the interview Steve said: "My children haven't used it. We limit how much technology our kids use at home." It is strange to hear from the person who made devices that dictate fashion and identify trends.

It turns out that many other leaders of technology firms strictly limit the amount of time their children can spend in front of a screen.  Many people didn’t know what to say about Jobs‘ answer. They somehow thought that his house is full of touch screens, but iPads and iPhones are given to guests instead of candies. But it was not so. At all.
