not monitoring, but mandating the WebKit rendering engine, and by proxy url filtering
CLAUDE:
What changed is Apple's own move. Apple unveiled new device-level age restrictions in the UK in late March 2026 — after an update, users must confirm they are 18 or older to access unrestricted features, using a credit card or ID scan. And crucially: for those underage or who haven't confirmed their age, Apple turns on Web Content Filter and Communication Safety by default. That default-on-until-you-confirm behavior is exactly what produces the screen in the screenshot — "required to restrict adult content for anyone who hasn't confirmed they are an adult" is almost verbatim the age-confirmation model.
