When talking surveys, it's always imperative to bring up this scene from Yes, Prime Minister which describes how these surveys work - https://youtu.be/ahgjEjJkZks?t=26
For reference, National Service was a national conscription service between 1949 and 1963. Since then a lot of conservative-leaning folks have been clammering about saying that bringing it back would fix the badly behaving youth.

Also a company that could get breached and the whereabouts of all the children surveilled is public knowledge.
Is this the first generation that has grown up with mass surveillance as a given? Or, at least, mass surveillance not explicitly associated with an authoritarian regime? One imagines there are psychological effects we haven't yet considered.
The funny thing is it is one thing to trust Apple with your location on Find My Friends, but now people willingly give their location to a company that will obviously sell that data and give it to as many people who want it.
There obviously is a way to make apps without this 3rd party surveillance of GPS, but who is going to make it? :(

My son (21 yo) does not have a cell but he is pretty open with my wife and I about what he does, but he’s open with us about different things. He’s told my wife about his romantic adventures but he told me about the “night of the living baseheads” where he locked himself out of his car and wound up spending the night at a crack house.
That’s sounds like an adventure.
Looks like a great advertisement for the services ... I mean all the surveys were conducted by the service providers.
Trusting a survey of a company selling this surveillance.
