Amaya Toman Abasebenzisi kudala bekhala ngohlelo lokusebenza oluvela kwa-Apple oluzoqapha ukuthi singakanani isikhathi abasichitha ezikrinini zabo zama-smartphone. U-Apple wethule kuphela umsebenzi we-Screen Time ngohlelo lokusebenza lwe-iOS 12 Insizakalo efanayo iye yanikezwa inani lezinhlelo zokusebenza zezinkampani zangaphandle isikhathi esithile, kodwa u-Apple usanda kuqala ukulwa nabo futhi waqala ukususa isofthiwe esetshenziselwa ukuqapha isikhathi sesikrini. isilawuli sabazali esivela kulawulo lwayo lwe-App Store.
I-New York Times ibika ukuthi onyakeni odlule, i-Apple isuse ngokuphelele noma ngandlela thize ikhawulele okungenani izinhlelo zokusebenza eziyi-11 kwezingu-17 ezaziwa kakhulu zesikhathi sesikrini. Kwezinye izimo, izinhlelo zokusebenza zisuswe ngokuphelele ku-App Store, kwezinye izimo, abadali bazo kwakudingeka basuse izici ezibalulekile.
Ukusabela konjiniyela ngokuqondakalayo kwakungakabi yisikhathi eside. Abadali bezinhlelo zokusebenza ezimbili ezidume kakhulu banqume ukufaka isikhalazo ku-European Union ngokumelene ne-Apple. Abathuthukisi, i-Kidslox ne-Qustodio, bafake isikhalazo ngokumelene ne-Apple ngoLwesine, kodwa ababodwa. I-Kaspersky Labs iphinde yangena empini yokungathembeki nomdondoshiya weCupertino ngenyanga edlule, isici se-iOS 12 Screen Time siyisihloko sengxabano.
Abanye onjiniyela bayabuza ukuthi ngabe i-Apple ifuna ngempela yini ukuthi abantu bachithe isikhathi esincane nama-smartphones abo. UFred Stutzman, ngemuva kohlelo lokusebenza lweFreedom, okuhloswe ngalo ukulawula isikhathi sesikrini, uthe izingcingo ze-Apple zokususa izinhlelo zokusebenza azihambisani kakhulu nokuzama ukusiza abantu ukuxazulula inkinga yabo. Uhlelo lokusebenza lwe-Stutzman's Freedom lube nokulandiwe okungu-770 ngaphambi kokuthi lususwe.
Ekupheleni kwesonto, iphini likamongameli we-Apple kwezokukhangisa emhlabeni wonke, u-Phil Schiller, naye ubeke amazwana ngayo yonke into. Uthe izihloko ezikhishiwe ku-App Store noma imisebenzi yazo ekhawulelwe zasebenzisa kabi ubuchwepheshe bokuphatha idivayisi obuhloselwe abasebenzisi bebhizinisi. Umkhulumeli we-Apple uTammy Levine, ngakolunye uhlangothi, uthe izinhlelo zokusebenza ezibaluliwe zikwazile ukuthola imininingwane eminingi kubasebenzisi, futhi wengeza ngokuthi ukususwa kwazo akuhlangene nokukhishwa kwesici sayo se-Screen Time. “Siphatha zonke izicelo ngokulinganayo, kuhlanganisa nalezo eziqhudelana nezinsiza zethu,” kusho yena.
U-Phil Schiller uze wathatha inkinga yokuziphendulela yena mathupha komunye wabasebenzisi be-imeyili. Iseva yazi ngakho Ama-MacRumors. Ku-imeyili, uSchiller ucacise ukuthi izinhlelo zokusebenza ezishiwo zisebenzisa ubuchwepheshe obubizwa nge-MDM (Mobile Device Management) ukuze ulandelele, ukhawule futhi ulawule, kodwa kungasongela ubumfihlo nokuvikeleka kwabasebenzisi.
