  • I assume it’s possible to disable Wi-Fi in your home and still find devices with their own internet access within a certain distance to locate any phones or tablets they might have acquired and brought home

    Limiting access to the internet

    Wi-Fi - just unplug the Wi-Fi router. When I was a teen I had friends who would always disconnect from games at certain times. Their parents would turn off the Wi-Fi and if my friends turned it back on their parents would take it to their bedroom with them.

    Phones / Tablets - What child under 16 is on their own phone plan? I would be surprised if the mobile providers don’t have controls where you can turn the data off.

    Other people’s Wi-Fi / hotspots - I can’t think of a way to stop this
