Apple Screen Time Bug Lets Kids Play Roblox

Katie's 3rd bug - If you set an apple device's date into the future or past (ancient 1980s) screen time breaks and they can play roblox until their eyes bleed. Apple assures me this isn't a security issue since screen time is not intended to protect against device manipulation.

A dark-mode social media post describes a supposed Apple bug where changing an Apple device’s date to the future or the ancient 1980s disables Screen Time, letting children play Roblox indefinitely. The joke is the absurd contrast between a severe child-safety consequence and Apple dismissing it as not a security issue because Screen Time was never meant to prevent device manipulation. It is shared as a sarcastic reaction to negligent corporate security responses.
