Norton bought it because of the technology, but does not care about kids, they just want quick profit, which those projects never produce.

I tried Kaspersky's filter and it's excellent. I encourage you to try it. All you need is a Kaspersky account. It keeps children protected online from inappropriate sites.

I have a Kaspersky account, but I don't have Kaspersky installed. Can I use it?

Hum I would say You can, since it is a stand alone product...

Thanks. I didn't realize that Kaspersky split this product off from the parental control module of KIS. This new product sounds very good, and it has a free tier. Perfect. I think I will switch over to it, when my Norton Family subscription expires.

Yes, in fact in K2020 there is no "Parental Control" any more, but "Kaspersky Safe Kids" offered as an optional service (similar to Kaspersky PassWord Manager) the user may download and integrate it with KIS/KTS in main GUI.

Can Safe Kids monitor and block web activity in Edge browser? I ask because Norton Family cannot.
Second question: can I set up Safe Kids to block all websites by default, and only allow according to whitelist?

Hum so sorry but I am not very experienced in this product, since I don't need it (I have no kids )
Here are some links with additional info:

About blocking in Edge, I guess should do it, since probably this product filter data in traffic level

I'm using K7 for the past 5years and I haven't noticed any difference in it. However, it keeps my system free from any troubles so I would highly recommend it as it also costs less than any other antivirus packs.According to Softpedia k9 got an update on Jan 7th, 2019
Can someone test it? did they redesign the UI?

This thread is about K9 web protection, not about K7 antivirus.

Thanks going to test it out. I just hope it is better than Adguard/Yandex Family DNS, they ignore reported adult webpages, even after years.
Forticlient's web filter - Forticlient - Next Generation Endpoint Protection - you can report via Fortinet URL Rating Submission
Then there is DNS filtering, which is problematic, since it blocks legitimate webpages, like video/image sharing and it does not accept exceptions.
CleanBrowsing - IPv4 and IPv6 Anycast DNS Firewall and Resolver - you can report via support@cleanbrowsing.org
OpenDNS - Setup Guide | OpenDNS - you can report via https://community.opendns.com/domaintagging/

To answer my own question: No, you cannot do this at present, although there are plans to add this option in the future.
