I'd like to see the monitoring include a list of unique IP addresses accessed over a time interval by each device. I think this is very basic info that is easy to get. I was surprised it was not included in any log.

- disconnect the source in my home if I think it's been hacked or is otherwise sending unauthorized info.
- discuss with my kids what they're seeing.
- take my kids' device away
