Michael Tingey, a Mormon father, husband and software engineer, created PYUR, a new smart filter that monitors web use by taking screen shots of all sites visited and reports those screenshots to a smart phone.
In the app, parents can control time limits, including curfews when the internet is turned off at night. “We consider our product to be a transparency device,” Tingey told LDS.net. “PYUR helps everyone see what’s going on and what’s happening in their internet behaviors.”
