I think the point is that anything that gets changed on a daily basis, the 
customer will have to do themselves.  We’re not going to be the homework police 
for $5/month.  (Also, any 14 year old knows how to spoof a MAC address.)

Calix can do that and they have an app for your phone so you can change those 
settings on the fly even if you're away from home.

Seriously?

 

What happened to sticking your head in the room and yelling “get off the damn 
Internet and do your homework”?  Are parents too lazy now to get up off the 
sofa and check on the kids?  When I was a kid, a parent could yell from 50 
paces and make you soil your underwear.
