According to a report by China Consumer News, some consumers found that the Xiaocai T1 children's tablet can search and download many bloody, violent and criminal games and advertisements in the app store.Almost all of these games are in foreign languages, there is no limit to the length of the game, they can be played without registration, and many games cannot be found in the game approval system of the State Press and Publication Administration.
In addition, in the comic apps of its app store, there are pictures, words and other content that are not suitable for children to varying degrees, and the little geniuses all set the download permission of these comic apps to 12 years old or older.
For a tablet computer product for children, the most basic demand of consumers is to strictly review and check the content.However, on the one hand, this little genius tablet claims to be "Strictly Selected Mall" and has a built-in "Green Shield" protection system that can detect bad information in web pages, small programs and local files; on the other hand, it openly provides children with Gore, violent games and ambiguous comics.The comparison of the two is inevitably shocking and scary. How did such content pass the review?
Previously, various learning pop-up apps continued, and some even jumped out of pornographic advertisements, and the chat room was even more smoky.In this regard, various regulations have been issued from the country to the local government to clarify the advertising and functional specifications of educational apps.Control the software, but also cannot ignore the intelligent education hardware and let it become a "new loophole" in children's education.
It is not the first time that the chaos of children's smart products has appeared.This year's CCTV 315 party revealed that there are huge security risks in low-end children's smart watches, and some even become "walking peeps", and malicious programs can easily enter the watches.
But such a problem does not only exist in low-end watches.Recently, some parents have also reported that the little genius phone watches bought for their children actually have built-in games to induce consumption by minors.Searching on the complaint platform, you will find that there are as many as 276 complaints involving Xiaocai's phone watches in the past year.
There are not no relevant regulations for the content specification of children's smart products.The "Minors Protection Law" clearly stipulates that "any organization or individual is prohibited from producing or selling, renting or otherwise disseminating to minors books, newspapers, periodicals, magazines, newspapers, magazines, magazines, newspapers, magazines, magazines, magazines, newspapers, magazines, magazines, magazines, newspapers, magazines, magazines, magazines, magazines, magazines, magazines, magazines, magazines, magazines, magazines, magazines, magazines, magazines, magazines, magazines, magazines, etc. Audio-visual products, electronic publications and network information, etc.”.
Whether from a legal or moral point of view, strengthening the content review and regulation of children's smart products is the right thing to do, and it is also the bottom line and the most basic requirements that the production and development of related products should strictly abide by.
From phones and watches with frequent problems to children's tablets full of violent content, the chaos of children's smart products deserves attention.Such loopholes are extremely harmful to the growth of children.
It is not difficult for children's smart products to truly become products that "children use happily and parents look at ease", but to achieve this, it will undoubtedly require the joint efforts of the industry and supervision.Any smart hardware product for children should learn a lesson, check the content beforehand, and don’t wait until something happens to start reflecting.For the relevant regulatory authorities, the review of products involving children's education cannot be ignored, and the supervision of intelligent education products may be more timely and proactive.
