    Designed for parents, hated by students
    by Li Yucheng (Chs), 2024-08-06

    Would give it 0 stars. Cannot even remove it as mobile guardian is blocking its own website to prevent me from removing it. It prevented me from accessing something as simple as Gmail. I do not see how it was useful in the first place, ended up leaking the data and wiping the computers of many students. -10/5, would not recommend.
