📱 WWDC26: Child Safety — or a Clever Moat?
Apple just made its biggest child-safety push in years. New tools let parents decide who a child talks to, which apps they use, and which websites they visit  — plus Ask to Browse, Time Allowances, and a redesigned Screen Time.
The provocative question: protecting kids, or locking families into iPhones?
🎯 Both, honestly. The Child Account is mandatory for under-13s, set up during device activation  — and as Counterpoint noted, it gives parents a strong reason to pick iOS for their kids.
🛡️ But the safety is real: controls sit at the OS level and run on-device, so sensitive content is caught without data leaving the phone. 
⚖️ A moat built on genuine protection is still a moat — just an honourable one.
“When protection becomes a product, the test isn’t the motive — it’s whether the child is actually safer.”
If anyone noticed or not @Apple will be selling more iPhone to the kids with parental control much better than any other brands. #wwdc actually luring the kids and their parents to get iPhone

Two economists just published a mathematical model arguing that AI could break the economy if nothing changes.
Not might. Not could. Their conclusion is stronger than that.
The paper is called “The AI Layoff Trap.” Published March 2, 2026. Wharton School, University of Pennsylvania. Boston University. Peer reviewed. Mathematically modeled.
The conclusion is one sentence:
“At the limit, firms automate their way to boundless productivity and zero demand.”
An economy that produces everything. And sells it to nobody.
Here is how you get there.
A company fires 500 workers and replaces them with AI. A competitor fires 700 to keep up. Another fires 1,000. Every company is behaving rationally. Every company is following the incentives correctly. And every company is building a trap for itself.
Because the workers who were fired were also customers.
When they lose their jobs faster than the economy can absorb them, they stop spending. Consumer demand falls. Companies respond by cutting costs — which means automating more workers — which means less spending — which means more falling demand — which means more automation.
The loop has no natural exit.
The researchers tested every proposed solution. Universal basic income. Capital income taxes. Worker equity participation. Upskilling programs. Corporate coordination agreements.
Every single one failed in the model.
The only intervention that worked: a Pigouvian automation tax — a per-task levy charged every time a company replaces a human with AI, forcing them to price in the demand they are destroying before they pull the trigger.
No government has implemented this. No major economy is seriously discussing it.
Meanwhile the numbers are already tracking the curve. 100,000 tech workers laid off in 2025. 92,000 more in the first months of 2026. Jack Dorsey fired half of Block’s workforce and said publicly: “Within the next year, the majority of companies will reach the same conclusion.”
Nobody is doing anything wrong. Companies are following their incentives perfectly. That is exactly the problem.
Rational behavior. At scale. Simultaneously. With no mechanism to stop it.
Two economists built the math. The math leads to one place.
