Your managed network sounds like malware. It intercepts, hijacks, records, blocks, etc. -- and all without the need for the user's continuous permission and knowledge.

I think that's a valid point. Does their managed network do monitoring? Isn't that as bad as this app?
Then you think wrong. If you join the workforce and want to access sensitive corporate information there will be access control and other security measures to make sure you are who you say you are, the information goes where it is allowed to go, and that if something out of the ordinary happens, the SOC gets to know about it.
Our managed networks are company property and if you try to install spyware on it you'll be kicked off. All of that is in the contract that you sign when you join the workforce. It also is not your personal network to toy with.
So the head of the household should issue corporate MDM software/devices to his family and self instead of the much easier route of consumer software.
Nothing I wrote had anything to do with 'household'. Even in the first line I talk about managed networks, not some home gamer doodad.
Anyway, the "head of the household" should get out of 1920 and find out about talking to your family like a person and using standard parental controls as validation, not weird policing. If you make your home a battle, people will find the stuff they want elsewhere and not talk to you about it if they have questions.
