If all apps that you want to use work, there’s no reason for you to be concerned.

As claimed by MediaTek. I doubt they’re outright lying but I can guarantee you that the “up to” is doing a lot of heavy lifting.

At least you can quickly read a tweet, considering how short they are it takes like a second. Shorts are worse, you have the same limited information but you have to watch the whole damn thing to get it (even with subtitles).

And most kids already do. People have been complaining about “kids today” for literally thousands of years. Probably longer, we just don’t have records of it. There have always been troublemakers, and there always will be. People have been blaming everything from literature to TV to music to video games to, nowadays, phones. This, too, will blow over, and it’ll be fine.

And the kids that are this brazenly disrespectful and disruptive would be disrespectful and disruptive without phones too. Most kids aren’t though, no matter how much alarmist media wants them to be. It’s a good old fashioned moral panic. Punish the actual wrongdoers, leave the test of the kids alone.

As long as the phone isn’t used in class I fail to the the issue. There’s no need to ban phone use in general while on school premises.
