Yes, It is a good solutions, but this is difficult to understand for the kids ... and for the biggest too. Security/Trust and Accessibility/Usability are things opposed, We have in mind a Security Principle in the Software Design: The Principle of Psychological acceptability. In brief, the browser or any client apps have to manage transparently security issues such as checksum verification when downloading/installing package, etc. Well, I think that those security techniques have to be implement into browser (Gecko engine) as add-ons. A nice add-on to include are the classic anti-phishing toolbars (netcraft toolbar, google toolbar, paps, etc.).. this could be an initial parental control... Some opinions, ideas?? Are there some OLPC's project related to security web/mail navigation??, I would like to colaborate.
