They mean the iPhone's MAC address, right?
I really hate these random MAC addresses as a parent with teens. It's almost impossible to filter internet content. I had to give them their own SSID so I could block shit. Also I don't do allow lists because I have too many smart devices I add and remove and it's a pain to always remember to allow a new device.
Why do you feel the need to filter the Internet of teenagers? In a few years they'll be driving if they're not already and a few years after that voting.
Lack of self control and maturity, once they can be trusted to not be sucked into watching videos for 8 hours straight or when they are 18 they can make their own choice. Tech addiction is a real issue for kids.
