Linux based OSs should be able to implement this more easily than Windows. The caregiver user has permissions higher than the child user, and is given a set of special tools for content control. Root remains root. In Android the situation would be similar.
iOS and MacOS can go pound sand.
I like the DNS solution, that’s a pretty reasonable way to provide granular control over web access.
It’s not about how easy it is to implement, it’s about how many use cases there are for an operating system and your freedom to build what you want.
If Ubuntu were to build parental controls into it, you download it, and decide to strip those features out because you don’t like them, are you breaking the law?
Does your dishwasher or other simple systems running Linux need a bunch of bloat installed on them to comply because they have operating systems? Servers? Control at the edge is great, but it must be optional.
