Finally it seems the end of Reddit is near.

    Your ISP doesn’t see which device accesses the Internet. They only see their router.

    OTOH, most routers already have features to block websites for specific client devices. But good luck putting the onus on the parents to configure that properly.

      They can see and manage the router remotely no reason why they couldn’t do it. Mine let’s me turn off the router lights, change the WiFi password or turn of the WiFi all together.

        How do you think this will go down? Parents calling the ISP with “please unblock porn sites for me”? I see various things why this won’t work. From ISPs not wanting to increase the number of service calls over Apple’s Private WiFi MAC addresses to these kind of customers not even knowing how their devices appear on the router. Nah, completely unfeasible.
