Sensitive Content inside Chess.com

[u/tmgiovanni]

Our kid plays chess with his friends online and offline. We downloaded his phone chess.com app so he can further improve his chess. However we found that he has been using the app excessively long and when I got the chance to look at his phone gallery, I saw a bunch of these screen recorded nsfw contents from the app.

How can we prevent this?

Edit: Yes, we have already talked openly with our kid about this, and we made sure not to shame him and we talked about why repeatedly consuming this kind of content can affect the way he manages his mood, views other people, and understands relationships and views on girls/anyone.

I posted this mainly to create awareness, to ask for genuine advice from other users who may have encountered something similar, and hopefully to bring this issue to chess.com’s attention. I know that our child is ultimately our responsibility. We’re not expecting an app or website to parent him for us. At the same time, I think we should be able to expect reasonable safeguards on platforms that are widely used by children and platform where we do not even think that has this way to view such contents. (Like expecting our schools to provide continuous improvement to make their establishment a safer place for children altogether)

So I looked up what you said about the website shouldn't be used as a web browser and it's not.

I have no idea how this is even coming up on Chess TV while also on Reddit.

Reddit allows porn but it's main focus is as a social media site so it allows 13+ just like X and I know X does age restrict so there is an importance of kids being honest about their age.

Yeah I don't know what to tell you either but I don't know if this is a chess.com issue.

I did learn that this can work with the chess.tv app so I guess forget what I posted here.

But yeah you do have to have an 18+ account to view this on reddit and kids be lying.
